is it worth watching

After La Cage Dorée and Miss, Ruben Alves this time tackles the difficult subject of escorting. escort boysA theme explored many times in the series, which takes on a special dimension here.

Because in this series, women don’t sell their bodies, but four men who embark on this new adventure to escape from their problems.

For this occasion, Guillaume Labbe plays a failed actor who returns to his native Camargue after the death of his father. There he discovers that his father has serious money problems and risks losing custody of his 17-year-old little sister if he fails to pay his debts.

That’s when he discovers that one of his father’s co-workers, played by Simon Erlacher, is making a pass and that his little sister knew about it. She then temporarily agrees to become an escort with her three best friends who are also in trouble.

Over the course of the episodes and their encounters, the four boys learn a lot about themselves and sexuality.

Despite the beginning, which suggests a fairly light series, Escort Boys very quickly manages to surprise us with many important and touching issues, sometimes even to the point of bringing a little tear to the eye.

If fiction deals with the issue of female sexuality, breaking the clichés conveyed by adult films, it also highlights male sexuality through the issues and taboos that surround the subject.

And if we might have feared that the female characters would be mere foils for our four heroes, they are not. Ruben Alves manages to make these guests characters in his own way, with a story and above all a strong message.

Between a powerful woman who needs a man by her side to be accepted by her peers, a business woman who sees an escort as an object of pleasure or a husband who hires one of his friends to restore his cancer-stricken wife’s confidence, each has a powerful and important story that manages to escape from clichés.

As for the casting, the four actors effortlessly bring these complex characters to life. Guillaume Labbe brilliantly plays a wounded man who finds it difficult to turn the page and whose escort will be his release.

On the other hand, Simon Erlacher, who takes his first leading role here, proves that he has the ability to spare and manages to touch us despite his role as a man with a heart of stone.

Corentin Filla and Thibaut Evrard are conspicuously absent, as is the young Marisol Fertard, excellent as a young woman who has come of age too early and hides many wounds beneath her sultry shell.

In short, despite looking like a silly and light series, Escort Boys deals with deep topics and brilliantly manages to combine drama and comedy. This is the last pleasant surprise of the year.
