Filmmaker GORAN STOLEVSKI talks about his ‘achingly beautiful’ queer love story ‘OF AN AGE’

Posted on Categories queerguru.tvLabels , , , , , ,

 

Australian/Macedonian queer filmmaker Goran Stolevski ‘s sophomore movie OF AN AGE is being hailed as an ‘achingly beautiful coming out/coming of age story that compares with Francis Lee’s God’s Own Country and will become a queer classic ” This heart-string-pulling tale initially takes place over 24 hours in a beach town in Australia in 1999 and which makes for a life-changing experience for Kol and Adam. Ten years later when they meet again we discover if this was more than just a passing moment.

Queeguru talked with Stolevski on the verge of the movie being released in US movie theaters by Focus Features this Valentine’s Day and also as the Opening Gala Film at Queer Screen Mardi Gras Film Festival in Sydney, Australia
