Watch: UK Trailer for Holding the Man

Timothy Conigrave's memoir Holding the Man is making its way to the big screen in the UK. It tells the story of his adolescent love with John Caleo that sparked a lifelong relationship.

Although it's a beautiful romance, it depicts the unfortunate struggles that many gay men faced in the '80s and '90s. Disapproval from friends and family, discrimination from strangers, and the dangers of a then-new virus all play obstacles in this true love story.

The trailer for the Australian film is a compilation of beautiful cinematography and breathtaking performances from Ryan Corr and Craig Scott ,as well as from veteran actors Anthony LaPaglia and Guy Pearce. With a June release in the UK, we can only hope it comes to the US soon.
