August is an LGBT American drama film, released in 2011.[1] The full length directorial debut of Eldar Rapaport, the film stars Murray Bartlett as Troy, a man returning to Los Angeles five years after abandoning his long-term relationship with Jonathan (Daniel Dugan) to move to Spain.[2] His return, however, poses problems for Jonathan, whose unresolved feelings and continued attraction to Troy threaten his relationship with his current partner Raul (Adrian Gonzalez).[2]

The film is an expansion of Rapaport's 2005 short film Postmortem, which also starred Bartlett and Dugan.
