I never thought I'd look back at the covid lockdowns with such a sense of nostalgia. This film was not only a lot of fun, but heartwarming and beautiful. It had me in tears by the end.
I was lucky enough to see this at the Sydney Mardi Gras Film Festival and could not believe it was the debut feature from Rafael Albarran and Trent Kendrick: their careful treatment of queer identities, their beautifully-crafted story, their stellar performances among a very strong cast (many of whom only exist over Zoom but somehow manage one scene-stealing moment after another).
Rafael and Trent have great things ahead and I'll be watching out for whatever project they have for us next.
If you're searching for a queer pick-me-up movie, look no further than F. L. Y.
