Host City by David Owen Kelly
In the vibrant yet tumultuous setting of Darlinghurst, Sydney, during the 1980s, rumors and fear spread like wildfire. Whispers of a mysterious "gay plague" and drastic government measures to contain it create an atmosphere of paranoia and danger. Amidst this backdrop, three young men—Kit, Ty, and Johnnie—navigate the challenges of living authentically in a world that seems increasingly hostile. As violence and discrimination rise, they must rely on each other to survive and find their place in a city that promised freedom and acceptance. "Host City" weaves a poignant narrative of resilience and friendship in the face of societal fear and prejudice.
