holding trevTrevor Holden (played by Brent Gorski, who also penned the film) has just witnessed his boyfriend Darrell overdose on heroin—again. As his oldest friend, Trevor feels a responsibility to help Darrell in his latest attempt at sobriety, much to the dismay of best friends Jake and Andie. When Darrell fails once more, Trevor meets the ever so charming Ephram who is not only a gorgeous ER doctor, but thankfully the fundamental opposite of Darrell as well.

While Trevor’s relationship with Ephram quickly progresses, his friendships with the sexually and emotionally frustrated Andie (Melissa Searing) and promiscuous Jake (Jay Brannan—as delicious as he was in Shortbus) disintegrate—something he hopes to rectify. Soon though, Trevor’s thoughtful and romantic new love accepts a job thousands of miles away in New York City and wants Trevor to go with him. Caught up in a whirlwind of change, Trevor must now weigh his options.

Through Gorski’s intimate script and the cast’s obvious chemistry, this cerebral dark comedy is continually poignant, relentlessly self-deprecating, and uniquely able to speak directly to twenty-somethings while letting other generations in on the joke.

Director Rosser Goodman and Actor Eli Kranski will be attending a post-film Q&A.
