I think Drector/writer David Lambert wrote and directed this weird story to appeal to those that have fun masturbating to needy and cruel fantasies!
Look at the cast - two beautiful men both lost and directionless here in this story. They find each other and it's a downward spiral from there. One is so needy he gives into self destructive behavior just for attention and the other one is just incomprehensible. Just like this movie!
There are other reviews here that praise this movie with words like - beautiful, adore, realistic, brilliant. I failed to see that. I found the movie, first, a bit silly, and second, wandering.

Completely dysfunctional
Morose and depressing
Boyish boy-man hooks up with manly man and they are in love till man man goes away on a music gig and never returns, whereupon the boy man cries and is in solitude. Soon we realize the man man was busted for trying to bring hash across a border and got into a fight with a cop and is in jail or prison for 18 months. Boy boy goes to seen him and they cry. Man man asks boy man to sneak some dope into prison, which the fool does. Meanwhile boy man is hooking up with adult bookstore guy who handcuffs, blindfolds and gags him then attach's apparently electrodes to his nipples. We need this, somehow. Then man man gets out of jail and by now boy man is totally boy man toy to the adult bookstore guy and obviously boy man is not going to hook up with man man again but he agrees to go to a hotel (340 euros on boy man credit card) They get in the room, undress and boy man refuses man mans advances. Why bother Not economical, could have been 40 minutes long but we need a lot of useless footage to fill it out. I don't need to see and hour and a half of dark sorrow. I pass.
A beautiful love story.. Very realistic
I watched the movie with no much expectation! It turned out to be one of my favorite movies. There are only four characters in the movie ! All of them did their part really well, Especially Paulo. The ending was very beautifully directed i had tears in my eyes ! This movie explains how complicated love is. Even though you want someone, it is not easy to be with him. As the other reviewer said,the story is not at all similar to "Weekend". Only Similarity is, the main characters meeting in a bar for the first time! other than that i cannot see any similarity in the story. Beyond the walls is much complicated love story.
