| SYNOPSIS - FORGIVE AND FORGET Edgy, gay Scottish drama featuring an explosive performance by newcomer Steve John Shepherd. REVIEW A riveting character study of one man’s conflict between his repressed sexuality and a passionate love for another man; this uncompromising examination of sexual identity and the bonds of friendship powerfully traces the tumultuous journey towards self- acceptance and coming out. The handsome, macho David (Steve John Shepherd, from the BBC’s critically acclaimed cult series “This Life”) is a construction worker for his father’s building firm in South London. Visiting trendy Soho for casual sexual encounters, David is unable to admit to himself or anyone else that he is gay. That includes Theo (John Simon), his good-looking, straight best mate whom David secretly loves. Inseparable since childhood, they’ve always been there for each other. That is until Theo moves in with his new girlfriend Hannah (Laura Fraser), putting a strain on David and Theo’s friendship. It takes an appearance on the TV show “Forgive and Forget” to set David on the right path to accepting both himself and Theo’s new relationship. Sexual tensions build and secrets are bared in this insightful, hard-hitting drama. "Shepard's performance is unforgettable." SF International Lesbian & Gay Film Festival |
