Synopsis by Bhob Stewart
Stuck in Brooklyn-Bridge traffic, bored Rhonda Portelli (Wendy Makkena) attempts to keep Travis Furlong (John Benjamin Hickey) from jumping off the bridge. At her bank job, co-workers celebrate her 30th birthday, but then she's fired. Travis turns up, and she decides to help him overcome his emotional setbacks, traveling with him to a small Texas town. Sexual tensions arise along the way, since Wendy doesn't know Travis is gay. Shown at 1998 fests (SXSW, Palm Springs).
