The 1998 British romantic comedy-drama film "Get Real" tells the story of Steven Carter, a 16-year-old middle-class schoolboy living in Basingstoke, England, who is secretly gay and struggling to come to terms with his sexuality. With the help of his best friend Linda and later, John Dixon, Steven navigates high school, bullies, and unrequited love, ultimately finding the courage to confess his true feelings and be accepted for who he is.
