Set in the summer of 1984 in Sandusky, Ohio, teenager Eric Hunter is terrified and exhilarated by his sexual attraction to Rod, a college student and co-worker at a local fast-food joint.

Featuring Lea DeLaria (Orange is the New Black) and an upbeat 80s soundtrack that includes the Eurythmics and Bronski Beat, David Moreton’s debut is a racy but sensitive semi-autobiographical coming-out, coming-of-age tale.
