Indian Summer (1996 film)

Indian Summer, also known as Alive & Kicking, is a 1996 British drama film directed by Nancy Meckler and starring Jason Flemyng, Antony Sher and Bill Nighy. The script was written by Martin Sherman, author of the play Bent. The film was released in the UK as Indian Summer and in the United States as Alive & Kicking due to the recently released Indian Summer by Mike Binder in 1993.

Plot

The story follows a self-involved and very focused dancer, Torino, who has just lost his lover, Ramon, to AIDS. He then refuses to let the fact that he is HIV positive disrupt his career as he rehearses a staging of Indian Summer, a gay-themed ballet about love and lust.

After Ramon's funeral, the dancer begins a troubled relationship with an older man, Jack, a therapist, who also has problems with controlling his own drinking.
