                兄弟禁断之爱。哥哥哈瑞是前男孩乐队成员，看着16岁的弟弟马克在他之后成为青年偶象。这个冬天，本来打算去日本的他绕路陪伴马克帐篷旅行。但起初充满欢乐和兄弟情谊的旅行却很快冷却下来，他们之间的问题重新浮出水面，无法忽视，迫使他们面对那伤痕累累的过去：哈瑞酗酒的毛病，他对家庭的疏离，还有他与马克的暧昧关系。这些，在他们成长的岁月中，如影随形；两人的感情，也始终寻不到确切的出口。                  
                这是一部耐看的作品。有点像小品，有点像实验电影，乍看之下朴实无华，仔细看了，却是此中有深意。两兄弟有个自私又贪财的母亲，只有彼此可以依靠。一起成长，积累回忆，情不自禁成为彼此最在意的人。虽然不是那种伴侣，或者，他们那样才是终身伴侣吧。然而，无关哥哥的酗酒，还有他们的家庭困境，他们只是无法纯粹地在一起。每个人都有DarkSide的部分，只有最亲近的人，才会让他见到自己最不堪的一面吧。亲情，友情，爱情，界限又在哪里呢？                  
                “反观我们一起成长的那段人生里                  
                大多数人想有个一个像Harry这样的哥哥                  
                但我们无法控制                  
                相互吸引”
