Get Real
Boy meets boy. Boy likes boy. Boy, oh, boy.
Directed by Simon Shore
Produced by Graphite Film Production (GB)
A tender coming-of-age romance about two teenage boys navigating first love and self-discovery against the backdrop of small-town homophobia and social expectation.
Sensitive rural town model student Steven Carter hides his gay feelings, except with his neighbor and best friend Linda. Suddenly his desperate search for partners leads to a blind date with golden boy John Dixon, bound for an Oxbridge career.
