CGiii Comment

It's been done before - this does not improve on that tired old premise - where sexuality is reversed.

Bad writing is the main reason - running out of steam in a 10 minute short isn't exactly the criteria for a great writer.

Lame and limited.

The(ir) Blurb...

In the homogenous world of Liberty High School, Justin Meyers has a dark secret: he's straight. In this parallel universe where gay is the norm, Homecoming is only day's away. Bobby, the most popular guy in school, wants Justin to be his date. But will Joanne, a quiet beauty from Biology class, out Justin's true feelings before the dance?
