The April 2020 Geelong Pride Film Festival (including this event) has been postponed. All paid ticket-holders have been provided with a full refund.
This romantic feature is inspired by the couple behind the camera. Kiwi-Samoan filmmaker Nikki Si’ulepa (Snow in Paradise) and Rachel Aneta Wills have dramatised their bumpy journey towards marriage and put it on the big screen. Pākehā single mum Rachel (they’ve kept real names) meets Samoan filmmaker Nikki and is immediately drawn to her, but self-doubt, botched communication and a pesky ex are landmines in wait. Director Si’ulepa wanted to "offer a glimpse into same sex relationships" and tell a "true, romantic love story that people can relate to"
Director: Nikki Si’ulepa, New Zealand, 2019, 95 mins, English, Unclassified 15+
