Gen Z friends Maxime, Julian and Vilas enjoy carefree youth in Munich: studying, partying and playing on their PlayStation. As they drift in different directions, they face a shared challenge: adulthood. Their bond defies male stereotypes, embracing closeness without hesitation. But change looms, as Maxime is about to go and study abroad.

Sylvain Cruiziat is a Franco-German filmmaker. Born in July 1995 he grew up in London, Paris and Hong Kong before continuing his studies at the University of Television and Film Munich (HFF) in 2014. Since enrolling there, Sylvain has directed several short films, including Find Fix Finish (2017) and The Raft (2019), which were screened at prestigious film festivals around the world. Festival selections include the San Sebastián International Film Festival, Visions du Réel, IDFA, the Toronto International Film Festival and many more. BOYZ is his first feature film and graduation project at HFF Munich.
