This is a nicely packaged, bitter-sweet, French story of young love - that arose completely unexpectedly.
It begins in a swimming pool where one protagonist is the blond, taciturn life-guard, and the other is an "out" gay guy who seems creepy, lusting after (aka "stalking") the first. Perhaps a bit unrealistically, the cloying, annoying antics of the exuberant gay guy eventually segway into a sort of relationship, with the "straight" one putting up with the flamboyant gay guy, who makes no secret of his hankering that is unreciprocated.
Turns out the straight guy lost his mother, and his father, a specialist at a local hospital, treats the gay guy for AIDS. When the straight guy finds out, he undergoes a change, as he is amazed that someone in a most precarious health would live so vigorously, and warmly with his mother and friends - as if there were no tomorrow.
As the gay guy succumbs, the straight one, perhaps out of pity, or perhaps with a mixture of kindled homosexuality, moves in to care for the ailing one in his last days.
