A young gay drifter and his search for acceptance drives this heartfelt beautifully crafted tale of family rejection and unconditional love. In a North Carolina beach town lonely motel manager George (Michael Kelly) befriends a new arrival: the attractive vagabond Michael (Kip Pardue). While claiming to be in town to protect the endangered Loggerhead turtles Michael may actually be running away from something. Elsewhere in NC preacher's wife Elizabeth (Tess Harper) notices that a pair of gay men has just moved across the street. Elizabeth is appalled by this... and another recent neighborhood development but her feelings are masking an even deeper disturbance. Another woman Grace (Bonnie Hunt) is also coming to terms with a deep down pain - she gave up a child for adoption many years ago. So she comes back to her hometown with hopes - and help from a pseudo-detective - to find him. Making his narrative feature debut Tim Kirkman (The Night Larry Kramer Kissed Me) cleverly shuffles three sets of characters and timelines that eventually intersect in a powerful profound way. A humanistic and gifted auteur Kirkman coaxes sublime performances from all of his leads including earthy and sexy upcoming indie star Pardue. [show more]
