  Life in picturesque Bangor, Maine, is complicated for Joe, a blisteringly sexy high school senior. Living with his single mother and older sister in a rough housing project, Joe takes a job as a live-in model for Victor, an artist, to save money for art school. While Joe dreams of leaving town, his friend Andrew, a hunky football star and avid shoplifter, is going nowhere. Joe and Andrew, stealing moments here and there from time with their girlfriends, begin to fall in love. When they encounter a shady figure from Joe’s past at a local gay bar, the youths decide they must exact revenge so Joe may finally feel free to leave Bangor. This latest unflinching work from Todd Verow (FRISK, ANONYMOUS), semi-autobiographical and deeply personal, questions which points in a person’s history will form facets of his identity. |
