If there is one type of film we never get tired of, it's lonely gay cowboys finding love. So Lonesome just became one of the must-must watch films of 2023.
According to the official synopsis, Lonesome follows “Casey, a country lad running from a small-town scandal, finds himself down and out in the big smoke of Sydney. When he meets Tib, a young city lad, struggling with his own scars of isolation, both men find something they have been missing but neither of them knows quite how to negotiate it.”
The trailer promises that the film is a queer love story told with a refreshing sense of sex positivity. Sign us up.
