Synopsis by Jason Buchanan

When the death of his parents prompts Billy to move back home in order to better care for his mentally challenged younger brother Johnny, the experiences that follow leave the caring brother forever changed in this small-town tale of courage and friendship from director Jeff London. Upon returning to his quaint east-coast village home, Billy not only reconnects with his brother Johnny, but with his childhood best-friend Dean - who is currently home recovering from injuries sustained during military duty in Iraq - as well. When Billy begins to realize that his feelings for Dean have grown beyond friendship into something far deeper, the fear of his secret getting out paralyzes him from acting on his emotions. Dean has his own secrets though, and when the truth about Billy's true desires come out, the lives of all three men will be changed forever.
