- As a group of athletes try to push past rivalries to score an elusive win, a secret simmers among them. Following a drunken encounter, Mark (Alexander Lincoln), a new member of a cash-strapped and divided South London gay rugby club, finds himself drawn to Warren (Alexander King), a seasoned first team player.

Remarkable Achievement Given Budget Restraints - In from the Side review by Richard
Financed by a kickstarter campaign this film contains some outstanding rugby footage in a story featuring a London gay rugby team, relationships and infidelity. Confidently directed and acted this film punches way above its weight and the end result remarkable given budget , however the storyline feels stretched at 2hrs 14mins - a cut to 90 mins would make an improvement IMHO.

Marmite... - In from the Side review by JR
Quite a well made film but not for us...a bit too earnest, it's really just a romcom without the com...and the music was too intrusive and oppressive. A brave solid piece of work, maybe too long to hold us, but I imagine would have huge resonance with gay rugby players. As gay men, we were bored!
