CGiii Comment

It takes skill to write a monologue...especially one that holds your attention from start to finish...as this one does!

Aaron Cini gives a solid, relatable performance...

Just a few quibbles...a couple of edits could have been ironed out and switch off that auto-focus...other than that...a damn fine film.

The(ir) Blurb...

Drew leaves another disappointing gay hook up and wonders why he feels so alone. This experimental monologue delves deep into the mind of a lonely gay man. His desires, his insecurities and his wavering belief he'll find love. Why can't he get what he wants? Maybe its everyone else. Maybe its him.
