Synopsis

Tim and John fell in love while teenagers at their all-boys' high school. John was captain of the football team, Tim an aspiring actor playing a minor part in Romeo and Juliet. Their romance endured for 15 years to laugh in the face of everything life threw at it - the separations, the discriminations, the temptations, the jealousies and the losses - until the only problem that love can't solve, tried to destroy them.

Based on Timothy Conigrave's cult-classic and hilarious memoir, and the inspiration for the award winning stage play, HOLDING THE MAN is the remarkable true-life love story that speaks across generations, sexualities and cultures.
