CGiii Comment

Sexual desire and loneliness...sounds like a typical gay drama.

It's not...all is not as it seems.

Highly original and deeply moving.

This should have been a huge film.

Important and impressive.

The(ir) Blurb...

Trainer Marty Goldberg has been stuck working on the fringes of the professional circuit far too long. Searching for a way out, he discovers Tommy, a young man with raw talent to burn.
