SAN DIEGO – A video about a gay relationship, posted by a student filmmaker at the University of California San Diego, has been getting widespread views on YouTube.

The filmmaker, Hieu Tran, alerted San Diego Gay & Lesbian News to the video and wrote, “I hope you enjoy it. You may need a tissue.”

So we got out our box of tissues and sat down to watch the video, which Tran uploaded on June 22. As of early Monday morning, it has been viewed by almost 16,000 people, who have given the video 474 likes and three dislikes.
