Synopsis by Jason Buchanan
In this drama set in 1985, an innocent young dancer named Frankie (Scott Marlowe) lands a job as an understudy at a prominent San Francisco dance company, where his growing connection with roguish veteran dancer Todd (Matthew Risch) provides emotional solace from the scorn of their merciless choreographer. Meanwhile, the emerging AIDS crisis begins to devastate the gay community, prompting deep reflection by Frankie and Todd while revealing the outwardly naïve newcomer to be more mature than appearances suggest.
