Anthony Smeaton –
A fascinating insight into coming to terms with your sexuality in early 90s Melbourne. Dealing with society’s stigma about homosexuality, the pain and fear of family rejection, the challenge of sibling relationships and finding your place in the gay community. It’s also beautifully descriptive of Melbourne.
