Controversial filmmaker Bruce LaBruce (L.A. Zombie) is back! Even though this is his most romantic work, it still holds his strong views, resulting in a queer version of Harold and Maude. Jake is an 18 year old boy who finds himself obsessed with older men. When his mother, a nurse at a rest home, offers him a job at the place, he doesn’t think twice. Once there, he finds out that patients are being treated with a drug that makes them catatonic. He then elopes with his favorite patient, Mr. Peabody, on a journey to the seaside.
