Of An Age, an unforgettable gay drama from Macedonian-Australian filmmaker Goran Stolevski. Partially inspired by Stolevski’s own experiences with coming out and coming-of-age in Melbourne (after emigrating from North Macedonia at a young age), the film takes us back to 1999—at least initially.Kol (Elias Anton) is a 17-year old amateur ballroom dancer, whose family moved to Australia from Serbia some years earlier.

He’s in final rehearsals for a big recital when he gets a phone call: It’s his best friend and dance partner, Ebony (Hattie Hook), who’s stranded hours away after a night of reckless partying.Related: ‘Of An Age’ Is a Beautiful Queer Coming-Of-Age Story Full of What-IfsIn a panic, Kol makes a plan to get Ebony back to safety, enlisting her older brother Adam (Thom Green)—who he hadn’t previously met—to drive him.

As the two weave through traffic, there’s an obvious attraction between them, even if Kol isn’t quite ready to admit it.Over the next 24 hours, the pair grows closer, while bracing for an inevitable heartbreak: Adam’s moving to Argentina, and they can’t help but wonder if they’re ending something special before it even has a chance to start.Without giving too much else away, the film’s third act jumps ahead in time to 2010, checking in on their lives 11 years after their fateful encounter.

Do they still have that spark?Stolevki’s achingly romantic film will have you swooning from the moment Kol and Adam meet to its very last frame.

Wendy Kaplan is the director of Trinity Place Shelter, which houses up to 10 young people at any given time — most of them transgender men and women of color — and steers them toward permanent housing, as well as professional or educational goals they set for themselves. The shelter, an independent nonprofit, was originally a pilot project of Trinity Lutheran Church of Manhattan, and still occupies its basement on the Upper West Side. It lets residents stay up to a year and half and welcomes individuals over the age of 21, a typical age cutoff for many youth shelters.
