SWEET MILK LAKE
After being mistaken for his twin brother by his estranged and dying dad, Sam relishes the opportunity to be one of the boys.
Description
U.S. Premiere
Jake and Sam are twin brothers, one cisgender and one trans. Sam, long estranged from their father, learns he is dying and decides to visit and finally open up to him. But when his dad mistakes him for his brother, Sam relishes the chance to finally be one of the boys, until the lie becomes heavier than his need for the truth.
In his feature film debut, Harvey Zielinski (DEADLOCH, WHITE FEVER) writes, directs, and plays both lead roles with exceptional nuance and ease, delivering yet another standout entry in an exciting new wave of trans storytelling coming out of Australia.
