Thomas Grattan recommends

Tramps Like Us (2001)
Joe Westmoreland
"Joe Westmoreland has created a story that's epic and intimate, raunchy and reflective, a love letter to exploration, sex, and the glorious messiness of trying to survive while the ground keeps shifting under your feet. Most of all, it's a story about the meaning-making power of friendship and the families we create as we stumble through the world. Clear eyed, funny, and deeply moving, Tramps Like Us is a marvel."
