My First Boyfriend

Issara is a young Thai filmmaker with two burning dreams: to create his own movie and to finally experience being in love as a gay man who has never had a boyfriend. When his documentary project is selected by BIOSCOPE film magazine, he embarks on a deeply personal journey that blurs the line between art and life. Armed with a camera, he sets out to capture the essence of first love—turning his search for romance into the very film he's always wanted to make. What unfolds is a tender, intimate exploration of self-discovery, vulnerability, and the messy, beautiful reality of putting your heart on the line. This early Thai BL film, part romance and part documentary, feels like a warm, handmade love letter to queer longing and creative ambition.
