OUTLAW
Sex and love; rejection and acceptance; passion and depravity – for anyone pushed to the fringes of society, these emotions can often become indistinguishable.
Nikita is an 11th-grader in Moscow, struggling to align his burgeoning homosexuality with his desire for acceptance by the mainstream, both symbolised by the most popular kid in school, Alpha. Nina is a middle-aged schoolteacher, with secrets in the past that continue to haunt him. On the face of it, Outlaw is the only one who revels in her role as outsider; freed from societal restraints, she gives full rein to her basest carnal instincts.
The plot switches from present-day Moscow -centered on the interweaving storylines of Nikita, Alpha and Outlaw– and the Soviet Union in the 1980s, following Nina’s love affair with an army General.
