André Manuel

Tom and Ajani are outsiders in their small conservative village in The Netherlands. Together, they dream of freedom and a new life as film students in Amsterdam, where their relationship no longer has to be a secret. When they finally leave their old life in the countryside behind, they are confronted with the norms and social constructs of the big city that turn out to be completely different than what they imagined. While Ajani thrives in the Amsterdam queer scene, Tom struggles to find his place, putting a strain on their now public relationship. In this new world, freed from always being hated for who they are, who will they become?

Manuel gives his unvarnished opinion on all kinds of current affairs, and everyone gets it down: Christians, Jews, Muslims, women and men. But through the grossness you can taste Manuel's great social commitment: he holds up a mirror to the audience and shows us the pitch-black side of reality.
