Coming of age story done properly
This Australian series follows gay teens in country town Western Australia. These are coming of age stories for gay young people that carefully represent Aboriginality, queerness, and identity. There are touching moments of tragedy, love and intimacy. Throughout the series, you connect with the characters and root for them. The exploration of visibility and masculinity somehow avoids a lot of the cringe factor that Aussie dramas can fall into. This is a series set before marriage equality in 2017 but relevant now and likely to be revisited be queer young Australians needing to see themselves on screen.
