Frameline50: Invisible Boys: Episodes 1-5

A group of tangentially-connected gay teenagers in the remote coastal town of Geraldton encounter the thrills and devastations of first love and sexual discovery set against the backdrop of Australia voting to legalize same-sex marriage in 2017. Catch the first 5 episodes of your next gay TV obsession — a YA limited series chock-full of hot sex, high drama, and plenty of Aussie charm. The second half of the series screens Saturday, June 27th!

With his blue hair and punk aesthetic, Charlie (Joseph Zada of the upcoming The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping) has never felt at home in Geraldton, but when he’s outed on social media after hooking up with a married man, he becomes the talk of the conservative town and starts to feel like “the only gay in the village.” But as the country debates allowing gays to marry, Charlie will cross paths with three fellow queers his age — First Nations footy star Hammer (Zach Blampied), horny wallflower Zeke (pop star Aydan Calafiore), and dreamy farm boy Matt (Joe Klocek) — each grappling with their own sexuality and identity. Based on the debut, award-winning novel by Holden Sheppard of the same name, Invisible Boys follows in the great tradition of gay YA series like Heartstopper and Love, Victor, so don’t miss this bingeable Australian gem at Frameline50!
