Zinzan is a short film about a rugby-mad kiwi father who fears for his son's recruitment into the national Under 20s national team when he insists on bringing his boyfriend to practice. 　　Mr Lewis is stoically proud of his son, Liam, who is on the cusp of launching into a rugby career. Yet he’s concerned for his son’s recruitment into the national Under 20’s team because of his perceptions of how others (the team, the fans, and others in the rugby world) will handle Liam’s homosexuality. 　　Mr Lewis has made peace with his son’s sexuality and has gone as far as accepting boyfriend Michael into their lives. But in the parochial, conservative world of kiwi rugby, he fears others may not be as welcoming, and Liam’s future will be threatened by the very culture they’re both devoted to. 　　Zinzan is a fresh story set within an old game, that forces viewers to reflect on not only the subculture of our national sport, but also the dominance of a masculine, heteronormative society.
