Storyline Love appears in the unlikeliest of places sometimes. Plainclothes is a gentle but strong story about Lucas, an undercover police officer during the 1990s. His assignment? To pretend, to obey, and to arrest gay men for their part in a clandestine sting operation. Lucas doesn’t question. He simply does what he’s commanded—to the point when he comes across Andrew. Andrew is merely another name on a report. But Lucas begins to feel something real. Instead of arresting him, Lucas is drawn closer. What starts as duty turns into something personal. And that’s when the story really begins. Because falling in love with someone you’re supposed to deceive comes with a heavy cost. The film shows what it feels like to live in hiding, to choose between truth and survival. With raw emotion and understated power, both Russell Tovey & Tom Blyth bring these characters to life in a manner that is genuine & profoundly human. If you’re the type of viewer. Who wants movies to make you feel something. Plainclothes is one you’ll want to take a look at. You can stream it on afdah, where emotional & meaningful films like Plainclothes are never far away.
