CGiii Comment

An intense film...with a strange colour palette, it's beige.

It's all very down-played and monotonal...in other words, lifeless.

The(ir) Blurb...

1999. Danny, a popular, sexually promiscuous punk, tires of his serial weekend hookups and frequent anonymous sex. Going against the advice of his confidant, June, Danny begins to see a quiet boy from Connecticut named Michael. As the relationship becomes more serious, Danny receives a worrying phone call from a former lover: he needs to be tested for HIV. Distraught and embarrassed, Danny keeps this information to himself. In turn, his love for Michael and friendship with June both begin to unravel as he deals with the weight of his secret.
