This second feature from
Boyfriends' directors
Neil Hunter and
Tom Hunsinger explores intertwined relationships in a sleepy seaside resort in the U.K., broken up into three segments. The film centers around the funeral of
Stuart (
David Coffey), the gay partner of
Nick (
Tom Hollander), who owns a local restaurant.
Stuart's brother-in-law
Dan (
Bill Nighy) is a depressive farmer who lives with his wife
Judy (
Ellie Haddington) and becomes smitten with a French woman named
Corinne (
Clementine Celarie), a local florist. As
Dan and
Judy attempt to settle
Stuart's estate,
Dan gives into having an affair with
Corinne -- but then ends up cheating on her with an amorous stranger (
Sally Hurst). Meanwhile,
Nick offers
Stuart's straight best friend
Tim (
Douglas Henshall) a place to stay.
Nick is furthermore disrupted by the advances of
Charlie (
Sukie Smith), a free-spirited woman who takes a liking to
Nick and introduces him to hetero intercourse. The final section of the film centers on
Tim who, after being abroad for several years, has a dalliance with shop owner
Leah (
Josephine Butler), who happens to be the former girlfriend of his adopted brother
David (
Stuart Laing). Also featured in the film are
Dominic Hall,
June Barrie, and
Peter Symonds.
