CGiii Comment

Deeply, deeply moving.

The sound is exquisite, the music is a sensation and Adam Donovan is a revelation.

Let your tears run freely.

Messieurs Haxton & Rosler - a fine future in filmmaking beckons.

Thank you.

The(ir) Blurb...

Phil, a shy, insecure teenager growing up in a affluent suburb, is trapped in the painful throes of adolescence. He's struggling to come to terms with his sexuality. At his elite private school, Phil is picked on by his former friend and love interest, Adam. Adam frequently lashes out with violence against Phil and enjoys humiliating him in the locker room. As the bullying intensifies, both at school and at home, the back story of Phil and Adam's ill-fated relationship is revealed, leading to a horrific final assault.
