Sometimes, love feels like light breaking through a storm - soft, sudden, and impossible to forget. Eliam Kouadio, 22, an Ivorian photographer, captures the world's beauty without ever daring to be part of it. Living in Lisbon, he moves between shadows and light, searching for a meaning he believes he lost somewhere between Abidjan and exile. Noah Mansour, 24, a French-Lebanese writer, lives through words. His poems, read by thousands of strangers, hide a void he can't seem to fill. An exhibition. A glance. A photograph. That's how it all begins. Between the brightness of images and the melancholy of verses, a connection grows - one that defies distance, silence, and old wounds. The Weight of Blue tells the story of two young men learning how to love without losing themselves, how to find one another in vulnerability, and how to turn their fragility into art. A gentle, poetic, and sensual story. A story about slowness, light, and the weight of real emotions. 💙 Because sometimes, the color of love isn't red. It's blue.

*WATTYS 2024 SHORTLISTED* Ellie did the 'True Love' thing and it left her heartbroken. Now her dreams are smaller: win a BAFTA, convince her mother she's okay, and don't kill her infuriating colleague Nas. And definitely don't kiss him. 'I am suddenly aware of his hand on my waist. Has he always been this tall? Has he always smelled of smoke and cloves and warmth? My brain is collapsing. All it can think is NAS IS TOUCHING ME. His lips are coming down... Or mine are coming up... Does he want to kiss me? Even worse, do I want him to?'
