Gelboys

Set against the neon-lit, pop-culture-drenched backdrop of Bangkok’s Siam Square, *Gelboys* is a raw, intoxicating coming-of-age story that dives headfirst into the messy, beautiful chaos of teenage love in the age of social media. High schooler Fou4Mod, nursing a recent heartbreak, finds himself drawn into the orbit of the effortlessly cool Chian, a boy with immaculate gel nails whose flirty invitations to get their nails done together feel like a promise of something more. But the flirtation turns into a frustrating game of wait-and-see when Fou4Mod discovers he’s not the only one getting those invites—Chian also pursues Bua, a half-Thai, half-German TikToker. Desperate to make Chian jealous, Fou4Mod enlists the help of his best friend Baabin, who has been harboring a secret crush on him for years. What unfolds is a breathtakingly honest love square where everyone is waiting for someone who wants another, all while cameras, TikTok dances, and group chats blur the line between connection and loneliness. Shot entirely on iPhones with a documentary-like intimacy, this series from the director of *I Told Sunset About You* captures the dizzying highs of first love and the crushing lows of rejection with a vulnerability that feels less like a drama and more like a memory you never had.
