Synopsis by Sandra Brennan

The dull and lonely life of a young homosexual is chronicled in this drama. His depression really began after his most recent lover dumped him. Now the protagonist simply goes through the motions of his life. Occasionally he and his nutty friend hit the nightclubs. It is at one such club that the young man encounters an incredibly handsome dancer. It is love at first sight for him, and the two embark upon an affair. But even being with his dream man does not relieve his depression.
