LOVE IS A CONTACT SPORT

Fresh from sold out screenings at BFI Flare, writer-director Matt Carter’s assured debut feature, In From the Side, explores life on and off the pitch at a gay rugby club.

Mark (Alexander Lincoln), a new and inexperienced rugby club member, finds himself drawn to Warren (Alexander King), a seasoned first team player. When a series of events at an away fixture lead to a drunken encounter, Mark and Warren unwittingly embark on a romantic affair they struggle to hide from their partners and teammates. As the secrets start to unravel, team spirit and loyalties are tested in writer-director Matt Carter’s startlingly sensitive story about forbidden love and finding your tribe.
