As a young gay man in early 2010s New York, Frederick’s life only begins when he finds love. He meets Johnny over an internet dating service and their relationship blossoms. But in a still broadly homophobic America their life together signals a rash of oncoming tribulations. Frederick faces aggression from every angle, even from within himself; his own body turning against him, Johnny’s secretive emotions offering little support.

As the lovers are mired in their own internal struggles and strife, they are forced to question whether their love is worth the risk when death stalks around every corner. Will Frederick ever get his dream wedding? Will they be able to start a family together? Will their love endure through it all? Only time will tell.

I Vote You, Mr. Mayor

While he attempts to keep his crisis out of the public’s eye, he secretly continues to pursue Duncan behind his parents back. Throughout their illicit affair, it evokes questions: Could their fling derail the entire campaign? How can someone like Luke find the courage to love themselves enough to admit who they truly are? Is love enough to risk everything for?

Lucian, a nervous, hotheaded and openly non-binary part of the Sun family, and Darcy, a gentle and moody part of the Moon family, meet at the Moon family’s monthly New Moon festival. The two become fast friends, but as their friendship begins to blossom into something more, past tensions between families appear, and the weight of responsibility threatens to pull them apart.
