CGiii Comment

Fairly good productions values, cinematography is - in places - admirable.

The sound is erratic and the music is awful.

Alas, too big subject for the material. A piece of advice: If you have to resort to dream sequences to tell the story...then, you are just asking for trouble.

The(ir) Blurb...

As a high schooler begins to discover his sexuality, he must deal with the mental and physical hardships of the fact that his first sexual encounter with another man was a sexual assault. This coming-of-age film explores the development of identity through sexuality, friendship, and family-life. In addition, it focuses on the struggles of sexual assault and the courage needed to fight back.
