CGiii Comment

It's kinda sweet...in places.

It needed a bit more work...especially in the acting and sound departments.

The(ir) Blurb...

John is an uptight gay man still in the closet. He is perfectly content keeping to himself, not letting anyone in on the fact that he is gay. He reluctantly returns to his hometown when his sister, Gibby, drags him to Basaan, the annual Water Festival--an event that John hates. When Gibby disappears, John turns to Trey, an old friend of his, for help. Trey calls out John on the way he chooses to live his life, and challenges him to take part in the festival.
