After a year of online pillow-talk, Ben (Don Shala), a shy Kosovar teen, is exhilarated to finally meet Leo (Leonik Sahiti), his first – but still secret – lover.
Consumed with passion, Ben carefully weaves the plans and cover-story for his much desired romantic tryst with Leo, who is arriving from Germany in just one month. Everything must be perfect. But when his mother surprises Ben with the news of the family relocating to a new area, he finds that he can’t take the opportunity to leave with them.
Soon, he starts putting the needs of his family on hold for the love of a mysterious boy he’s never met.
The feature-length debut of prolific short film director Erblin Nushi, I Love You More is a tender, resonant and gorgeously crafted queer coming-of-age drama.
