JULIAN by Antonio Da Silva
JULIAN is an experimental biographical piece about two men – Julian and Antonio – who disconnected themselves from the anxious city, and allowed their spirits to be taken by nature. It is a slightly voyeuristic love letter about and to Julian – the Swiss man whom the narrator has briefly met in London and, shortly after, invited to a road-trip to Portugal.

Hello Antonio,
I was moved by the short Julian. Not only the name which holds a deep relevance for me, however, the scenes that were created with the Super-8. I grew up in the southern part of Florida, and this film reminded me of my youth and growing into adulthood, all the things that a young man will do to see the way of the world, well they are many. I want to show this film to my boyfriend (when I do, I will donate again.) he grew up in New Hampshire and I in coastal southern towns round the Gulf of Mexico. We are from two different worlds with two different sets of youth. I find it very interesting how we can be together under these life events, yet I say, truly that opposites attract. The very images that you fully expressed is the idea that I feel should be brought back to the western ‘gay’ culture, that of naturalism. An idea that men are men.
In short, I enjoy your films and I hope that you continue to make them, for you have an audience, let them see. Call me an old soul.
until the end
great video, the super 8 is so cool. the look of it.
Beautiful, tender, masculine. Really drew me to see Julian with awe, wonder, as a person. Really felt Julian’s connection to all creation, and also reminded me of his beauty, value and creativity in God. Whole, beauty, integrity, glory, simplicity.
I am queer demisexual. The vast majority of porn, most people in fact do not spark in my psyche the slightest sexual frisson. I can nonetheless appreciate the homoërotic nature of the cast and the æsthetic quality of the imagery in this short. At times the dialogue (mostly monologue ?) did merge into a poëtic art-form – and I wished those moments could have been extended. However, at other points the script felt stilted and jarred within me. I did feel the oral & visual narrative is a complete entity and as such I felt satisfied at the end. I agree this short very much feels like a love-poëm to Julian. I should very much watch on another occasion.
Agree.

Excellent! I’ve been meaning to shoot a short film that is aesthetically similar to this one – I’m glad I found out. It can most definitely serve as inspiration. I have an urgent question though: which camera did you use to shoot this?
I am glad that you are inspired! The camera a used for this film was the SUPE 8 CAMERA CANON 1014 XL-S SUPER 8 SOUND MOVIE CAMERA
Adorei o trabalho
Gosto muito deste estilo de vida
Adorável
This was a beautiful homage to the man Julian. It was interesting that we only heard the narrator speak, until at the end we finally heard Julian, but only briefly. I wonder if he was upset that he didn’t get to do his Magnum impression. Someone else commented that this film made him sad. It could be because the narrators voice sounded a bit melancholy perhaps due to an unrequited love.
Gorgeous! But some reason, left me feeling very sad. So grateful to have seen this. Thank you!
You make the real erotic films, omg you are so good on this!!!!!
Lindo demais!
I just discovered your films through an ad on Bateworld.com and I have to say I admire the artistry of what I’ve seen. I saw the trailer for Spunk, and I saw Julian. Both were very intriguing. Julian was beautiful in indescribable ways, and in my opinion, epic. He seems a very fascinating man, and if there was a longer documentary about him, I would certainly watch it. The trailer for Spunk dazzled me. It was hot and steamy, and the part that made me cum was where the guy had a tail in his ass and it seemed to move on its own. I’m a furry and tails are hot to me, especially if the guy has a hot ass, like he did. Anyway, towards the end, the sensory overload was entrancing. I couldn’t process all of the stimuli, but I couldn’t look away either. And I didn’t want to. There’s something very raw to your films, something edgy. Professional in design without appearing contrived. Sex is amazing on its own, in its raw state, and you have not only captured that raw artistic beauty. You have created an art form that is inspiring. Thank you for sharing your films. 🙂
i just discovered your films! beautifull poetic sexy stuff. it’s quite hard to bring explicit sex back into a poetic and artistic approach and you managed it so beautifully. congratulations. best, rainer
It is really a beautiful film, from every points of view. I will watch some more of your films, that is for sure!
The camera work was beautiful and enjoyable. It had a lana del rey feel to it, very honest and intimate.
amo teu trabalho. Parabéns!
Es fantástico, la naturaleza, la belleza, la simplicidad, la energía todo fluyendo al mismo tiempo y tu captándolos… Amo el film.
quite dreadful, poorly edited and amateurish shot, should never have been let out of the can
Really loved the film Julian – I have felt in my self a longing for some beauty in my life – there is real feeling in the camera work, it is as though i watch the film with a glint affection from the cameraman’s eye – in a way it was painful as the intimacy in the filming made me feel a lack of it in my present experience. I also love to experience the connection to nature you were observing in the film.
In any case it promoted a surprising reaction, a thing of beauty, thank you.
Thank you Richard!
I am very glad that you experienced those emotions from watching the film.
I miss the summer!
encontrei o teu trabalho enquanto estava a navegar em sites porno e esbarrei no “beach 19”- gostei bastante. Gostei da fotografia, da edição, da música, dos temas e da arte que está nos teus documentários. Não é pornografia de todo, mas há toda uma atmosfera sexual que pode ser encontrada em cada um, e, se não sexual, há, pelo menos uma nuance sensual. Por exemplo, no documentário “Julien ” que vi por ultimo, está, vejamos se encontro as palavras que fazem justiça: cinematográfico, cru, tem toda uma atmosfera selvagem “wild nature” bem intimista que nos leva a uma odisseia sobre o Julien. Adorei 🙂 poderia ser todo um BBC vida selvagem sobre um rapaz. Está muito genuíno, gostei muito da tua arte. Continua o teu trabalho 🙂
Obrigado David 🙂 Abracos!
Excellent excellent excellent, just excellent. I’m in love.
Obrigado!!
I truly feel the desire and passion from this film! You can tell your feelings about this guy just by the way the narrator talks about him. I need to know though…what song is playing at the end of this film!
thank you Chris for your comment! the song is “I Ask” from Ebe Oke:

I loved this film. I want to see more of your work. This was so touching and beautiful. A perfect remembrance of a wonderful summer with a handsome man. I hope the romance continues. Please share more.
Love
Jeremy

This film is truly beautiful! It touched my heart and kept it racing.
this is a simple note to thank you for putting your movies on the net. I have watched several – and repetitiously – I like them very much
🙂
This is amazing. Your work is so authetic and poetic. I can feel everything within the images and your voice. I’ll be watching all your over and over again for the next days.
Thank you for your support!!!

I cannot express in words how much I truly appreciate your films. I believe the subjects you have explored are very important, as is the way you have framed them. Please correct me if I am wrong, but I feel as though your work shows a brutally honest representation of gay male sexuality – one that is still very much hidden and closeted. I think your work is important, bold and courageous and I continue to follow your career with enthusiasm.
