The(ir) Blurb...

Memoirs of a Killarney Houseboy is an improvised tragi-queer film about an older gay man who was once the (caviar and) toast of the gay rave scene. He takes care of the homes of residents in a high-rise Johannesburg suburb, from older Jewish women to messier gay men. Shot on an iPhone, in 8mm app. The houseboy is obsessively in love with his client, the celebrated captain of the Flamingos synchronized swimming team. He is the ultimate bunny boiler in the bunny suit. Rejected by the object of his affections, he takes refuge with a kinky lesbian/queer couple. Tensions rise as he drives a man-sized wedge in their relationship.
