Out
Tom and Ajani are outsiders in their small conservative village in The Netherlands. Together, they dream of freedom and a new life as film students in Amsterdam, where their relationship no longer has to be a secret. When they finally leave their old life in the countryside behind, they are confronted with the norms and social constructs of the big city that turn out to be completely different than what they imagined. While Ajani thrives in the Amsterdam queer scene, Tom struggles to find his place, putting a strain on their now public relationship. In this new world, freed from always being hated for who they are, who will they become?

Loved-up “Tom” (Bas Keizer) and “Ajani” (Jefferson Yaw Frempong-Manson) live in a small Dutch community where the latter man has just come out and where the former, bisexual, has thus far kept his powder dry. Both are keen film students and hope to get to Amsterdam where they can enjoy a new life together but almost immediately they arrive, they hook up with the outgoing “Fer” (Fjodor Jozefsoon) w
