he / him / they / them / him / they / he / us / you / I don't know / how do you keep getting this wrong?"
NICE THINGS: A QUEER LOVE STORY finds a gay couple, in the midst of their comfortable years. The two of them have everything; a beautiful flat, three holidays a year and truly envious instagram grids. Nothing could ripple their idealistic world. Except for each other. When one of them comes out as nonbinary, their idealised gay picket fence life begins to crumble.
How do we deal with drastic changes in someone we love apparently unconditionally? Are they really that drastic? Does it actually change anything? And isn't it better if your partner is just themself? Isn't that what you love about them? Maybe. But maybe not that much themself.
