Take a trip to the land down under, where the universal woes of being a rebellious high school student, a big gay science fiction nerd, a man who doesn’t quite trust his partner, or simply the gay son in a traditional family are as present as they are anywhere.

The Prodigal Son (Tony Radevski, Australia, 2006): Prodigal Son is the moving story of a traditional Macedonian family’s dilemma with having a gay son now in his forties.

Working it Out (Tim Hunter, Australia, 2007): Peter and Marcus, like any good couple, do everything together, including going to the gym. So where exactly does gym bunny Jeremy fit in?

Queensland (Matthias Cerwen, Australia, 2006): Three manly men dish the dirt on who is “gay” and who is “not” in this hilarious Aussie short.

Untitled / The Trees (Alex Goddard, Australia, 2006): A narrative that juxtaposes three high school students in their school play and their night out drinking.

Outland
(John Richards, Australia, 2006): Max’s date has gone terribly right, and has even led to “coffee” upstairs. But Max has a dark deep secret … he’s a big gay science fiction nerd.
