THE LANGUAGE OF LOVE

 

The two videos show different situations where the protagonists are afraid to reveal their love.

 In the first one the protagonist is a student that in an exam has to write a text about his best friend, but he is gay and loves him. He is afraid to confess is love for two reasons: he is worry to be rejected by his loved and to be mock by the other students.

In the second one there are a boy and a girl; he is naïve and have not the courage to confess is love and she couldn't declare her feeling because she is mute.

 

In the videos the characters are embarrassed and awkward like Romeo when they try to declare their love. This shows that also if situations, social contest and age change, humans have the same reaction when they have to use the language of love. Everyone is embarrassed and afraid by partner's answer when he have to reveal his love because everyone feel the same emotion also if change the object of love.

In some case the society considers love wrong: Romeo and Juliet comes from two families that are declares enemies and the boy in the first video loves another boy and the society of now a day’s refuse this kind of love. This makes more difficult love's declarations because if the great part of people says that a thing is wrong it becomes always wrong and if you think that a thing is wrong you try to avoid it.
