Blue is a short film that explores the complexities of friendship, intimacy, and unspoken feelings. Carter and Drew are best friends who spend nearly every moment together, but for Carter, who is queer, their closeness has always been laced with confusion. Drew’s casual affection feels like more than friendship, but his intentions remain unclear. As Carter begins to question what their bond truly means, he gathers the courage to ask, “What are we doing?” The conversation unearths deep emotional tension, leaving Carter vulnerable and Drew unprepared. What follows is a quiet unraveling of their dynamic, forcing both boys to confront truths they’ve tried to ignore, and possibly feelings they’ve yet to name.
