Lawnboy by Paul Lisicky
17-year-old Evan's adventures begin with mowing a neighbour's lawn - a summer job that leads him into an unpredictable world of desire and betrayal. Estranged from his parents and his older brother, he moves in with 41-year-old William and begins a disastrous series of attempts to make a new home. Must he make a choice between family and desire?
