I Am Not What You Want

Original Title: 天使
Origin: Hong Kong
Year: 2001 | Runtime: 48mins
Awards: Special Jury Award, Internationaal Speelfilmfestival, “De Drake”, Gent, Belgium

Synopsis:

Ricky was kicked out of his home because of his homosexuality, and takes refuge in the home of his friend Mark. Living under the same roof, these youths realize they have more in common than they thought. I Am Not What You Want is a fresh and original look at teen love and sexuality in Hong Kong.

The first thing that viewers will notice is that I Am Not What You Want does not contain any sex scenes that are common with gay movies nowadays. By removing that plot element, the movie pushes off the gay film stereotype. What it focuses on instead is that what matters is only “love” as there should be no distinction between “gay love” versus “straight love”.

This alternative inspection of love and sexuality also challenges the values and points of view taken mostly by heterosexuals especially in Hong Kong and China. Viewers will find the story tender, and the approach taken towards its subject matter as very compassionate. The portrayals of all the characters and their actions are realistic, which is one of the things that the movie is successful with. The only thing perhaps that makes this movie perfectly well made is that the cinematography can get a bit blurry. It is not evident if this effect is intentionally done by the director, so it can get distracting sometimes.
