The ups and downs of a Parisian rent boy.
Review by Benjamin Poole
Directed by: Camille Vidal-Naquet
Starring: Félix Maritaud, Eric Bernard, Nicolas Dibla, Philippe Ohrel
Talk about an opening scene&#; In the first moments of Camille Vidal-Naquet&#;s sensual, superlative gay drama Sauvage, we see lead character, lane hustler Léo (Félix Maritaud, it is a shame that he is so very ugly etc) ostensibly having a routine check-up with his local GP. What starts off as standard soon begins to seem a little, uh, intimate, and, yep, before anyone can say curve over and touch your toes, Léo&#;s quack is swiftly wanking the willing patient off.

SAUVAGE – Out Now DVD, Bluray and On Demand. for details
year-old Leo sells his body on the street for cash. Men arrive and go but he remains; stuck in the similar place and longing for love. Uncertain of what his future may carry, Leo hits the road. Sometimes impetuous, sometimes savage, sometimes tender but always with a pounding heart &#; Leo is ready for change.
Camille Vidal-Naquet’s arresting debut is also one of silent introspection and disarming fragility. Starring BPM’s Félix Maritaud, whose uncooked and vulnerable core performance is nothing short of devastating.
