Lilies Not for Me (2025)
England in den 1920ern. Der Schriftsteller Owen landet wegen seiner Homosexualität in der geschlossenen Psychiatrie. Bei einer Reihe ärztlich verordneter „romantischer Verabredungen“ entsteht eine tiefe Freundschaft mit der Krankenpflegerin Dorothy, der er sich langsam öffnet und seine Geschichte erzählt: Wie er erst glaubte, Frieden und Glück mit seiner großen Liebe Philip gefunden zu haben – und zu spät erkannte, wie tief dessen Selbsthass wirklich saß. Mit einer brutalen, riskanten Operation wollte Philip seine verbotenen Gefühle zügeln – und Owen sollte das Messer führen.
Der Regisseur: Will Seefried
