Dashingly handsome and multi-talented Italian playwright, director and actor Marco Calvani casts his real-life lover, Brazilian star Marco Pigossi (Gen V), as the lead in his debut directorial feature.

Lourenço is running out of time on his visa but doesn’t want to go home, having fallen in love with the sea-spray-misted charms of Provincetown, the fishing enclave and artists’ haven that has long harboured gay men seeking the quieter life. With his recent ex not returning his calls, he’s a lost soul who finds solace in the melancholy poetry of Oswald de Andrade and begins to fall for visiting New Yorker Maurice (James Bland). Deep waters run through this luminous SXSW-debuting movie that also features Mya Taylor, the breakout star from Sean Baker’s Tangerine, Todd Flaherty of Chrissy Judy fame and none other than Love is Strange and Spider-Man star Marisa Tomei.
