Amen (India) - 24 min
Andy and Harry meet through internet. Andy is about to get engaged and wants to have a fling on his last bachelor day and is with his counterpart, the soft-spoken, overtly humble Harry, stands tall and firm and is completely rooted where he is today. The fling leads to talking and Harry trying to make Andy feel comfortable in his gay skin. “Amen” makes two characters meet, experience hope amidst confusion, explore truths about sexuality and the self and delves into the profound meaning of life in the continuum of its trifles. Good acting and story.

Over acting and a really badly made film.
