AUSTRALIAN PREMIERE
If you’re hankering for a feel-good fix that packs in a fabulous cast, look no further than this cosy hug of a queer film from writer/director Andy Vallentine.

Unleashing a spiral of complicated feelings, neither man knows exactly what they want anymore. Schitt’s Creek fave Emily Hampshire, Hacks lead Carl Clemons-Hopkins and Single Parents actor Jake Choi all show up as part of their logical family.
