When country-boy Casey (Josh Lavery) lands in Sydney, he drifts into casual hookups, avoiding emotional commitment, but his encounter with Tib (Daniel Gariel) leads him to risk a more intimate connection.

This melancholic and explicitly sexual story explores emotional dislocation and queer masculinity.
‘Casey resembles a man hoping to be mistaken for a myth – but glance underneath his hat’s rim and you’ll see a hurt soul, having long internalised that his only value is his looks.’ – The Guardian

Available as a Double Feature with Teenage Kicks screening + Q&A. Learn More.
