Buck’s problem is not that one drunken encounter happened; it is that he lives somewhere small enough for shame to become public property. Bad Boy Buck turns that fear into a tense Irish gay short film, with Diarmaid Murtagh giving the central character an increasingly cornered physicality. The story pushes hard toward thriller territory, but the claustrophobia works because the secret feels socially dangerous before it becomes literally threatening.
