An ambitious epic romance that traces the course of two men through their initial meeting as teenagers in 1973 until the mid 80's. Alan is a member of the Young Republicans and an aspiring journalist. He's working on a book about the evils of homosexuality, and invites Tommy, a gay rights activist, over for dinner and to interview him for the book. Thus begins a friendship that leads to a love affair told against the background of Anita Bryant, radical politics and the emerging gay rights movement. (officiële tekst van distribiteur)

Engels A romantic-dramatic comedy about a love that was not favoured by the social climate of the time and many other circumstances. The Trip is a film that purposefully mixes comic and relaxed scenes with tense and tragic ones, while the love story finds its place. Even though it's more of a modest and (in appearance) TV movie, it still got me. I'm sure it could have done with a little more in certain places, but I was still satisfied in the end. In short, a film about an unconventional look at one couple in love, influenced by contemporary events across a decade. ()
