Like It Is

1998, 93 minutes

A tough young boxer struggles to come out in England.

Craig, a cute, closeted bare-knuckle fighter lives in a violent world, where winning is everything - but losing can mean death. When Craig meets Matt, attraction is instant, but Craig can't handle intimacy. Though their first night is a disaster, Craig follows Matt back to London, but his friends are suspicious and try to ward him off Craig. For Craig, 'sophisticated' Soho is a revelation, but how can he stay when those closest to the man he loves want him gone? And if he leaves, will Matt throw aside his success and ambition to be with the first guy he has ever truly loved?
