The(ir) Blurb...

An interracial gay couple, Teo and Dimas, got screwed by their own countries (USA/Indonesia) due to the fact they're homosexuals. So when, Teo gets sick, they have to figure out a way to be together in Jakarta, Indonesia. They got married in Boston, MA but since the immigration rules are federal. Dimas can't go back to the USA with Teo. But in Indonesia, they have to deal with Indonesian hospitals that prevents anyone (including Teo) who can't provide a down payment from getting a treatment. Dimas, after asking Allah for a way out, decides to do the unthinkable in order to get the money.
