Holding The Man

2015
Streaming Video
Tim and John fell in love while teenagers at their all-boys high school. Their romance lasted 15 years to laugh in the face of everything life threw at it - separations, discrimination, temptations, jealousies and losses. Based on the much loved and hugely successful memoir and stage play of the same name, Holding The Man is the warm, funny and extraordinarily moving story of the 15 year long love affair between Timothy Conigrave and the boy he fell in love with at high school, John Caleo. Tim was an aspiring actor. John, the captain of the school football team. Their relationship blossomed and endured in the face of everything life threw at it - pride, adversity, discrimination, temptation and loss - until the only problem that love couldn't solve, tried to destroy them.
