CGiii Comment

There's nothing more distasteful than internalised homophobia...even if it is spewed out by a god-fearing, bible-bashed, brain-washed christian!

There's a great big bit of the story that has been missed out...did he go through conversion 'therapy'? It certainly seems so.

A life led in denial and an incomplete film.

The(ir) Blurb...

A personal story about brotherly love and betrayal. Two brothers, Derek & Jeremiah, reunite. But they have taken radically different paths in coming to terms with their sexual identities as gay men.
