CGiii Comment

The set-up and situation makes this immediately confrontational. It is a little hard to digest.

Then...the actual confrontation is indigestible.

The gay man comes across as an absolute ass...what could have been an interesting clash of gay, white privilege versus the post-AIDS, snowflake privilege...goes absolutely nowhere.

The(ir) Blurb...

A young, non-binary visitor to London returns to their Airbnb to find an older gay man has moved in. In a small studio flat over one turbulent night, Orin and Anto confront the queer generation gap and decide to make space for each other.
