Naïve, irresponsible and overly melodramatic.

The(ir) Blurb...

A teen boy, Danny, in the waiting room of a hospital after his brother, Beckett, has been diagnosed with HIV/AIDS. In the room with him are his homophobic and desperate father and Beckett's outspoken yet secret boyfriend. Tensions arise while the three are trapped in the waiting room, awaiting a chance to visit Beckett. It's raw, gripping, and heart-breaking, but all about family and the idea of coming together in a time where everything seems to be in shambles.
