CGiii Comment

A naïve, amateur and juvenile transference of a time that 'they' [i.e. the director and dreadful writer] wouldn't have wanted to have lived through!

Have some fucking respect!

A film most offensive. Iris Prize [we love you]...but, scrapping the barrel with this one.

No trailer...

The(ir) Blurb...

Set in 1987, against the backdrop of the AIDS crisis, this is the story of bored teenager Brittany, whose life is enlivened when she meets out and proud Faras, and the two bond over a love of music and their experience of being outsiders among their clique of friends.
