Joris is trying to come to terms with his broken family relationships on the 10th anniversary of his father’s death when he meets the free-spirited, Yad. Also dealing with family issues, Yad has returned home to The Netherlands after living on his own. Joris and Yad spark an instant connection and decide they want to be more than “just friends,” but fear their families could threaten their relationship.

does anyone happen to have Gewoon Vrienden (Just Friends), Luciérnagas (Fireflies) (2018) and/or Children of God (2009 or 2010 depending on who you ask) lying around?
see i'd be terrible in a relationship because if i went through a rough patch and tried talking to the other person once and they avoided me i'd be like "okay bye i guess" and never try again
