This starts out with a scene that reminded me of the original "Queer as Folk" (1999) drama with a single young man amidst a nightclub scene in which he looks lost, watching the dancers and the couples. A stranger comes and gives him a cigarette and then, as the title suggests, we fast-forward to the same man only moustachioed and older - looking for and rejected by a younger man, then again we advance to when he is quite elderly, has lost his looks and is reduced to funding a younger man - before we see him, finally, back on the same dance floor, quite literally. I'm not at all sure what we are supposed to take from this? The shallowness or fickleness of gay existence? The constant search for youth? Carpe Diem? There's no dialogue so I suppose each to his own but I was left unbothered one way or the other.
