A NIGHT LIKE THIS

by Liam Calvert
Country: UK
Year: 2025
Duration: 97'


A gay actor on the verge of suicide and a privileged man with a failing business and a guitar on his shoulder: Lukas (Jack Brett Anderson) and Oliver (Alexander Lincoln) cross paths on a winter night in London. They wander and argue, trying to make sense of their existences, compare personal difficulties, and seek new points of view. But when their unlikely bond evolves into something deeper, fears and demons from the past jeopardize the entire journey. Somewhere between Capra and Linklater, Liam Calvaert's debut feature film has been written and produced by Roman film producer Diego Scerrati.
