very sad movie
A strong movie about the sadness of life. It reminds me of my younger brother who felt lost and died at 17 before he knew what he was.
Well done technically. Sometimes difficult and disturbing to watch. A rather dark drama, a bit like visiting a mental hospital.
Unbelievable coincidence. Still good outline to the difficult place some guys end up in. Message NOW take PrEP!
I guess you people don't know the underbelly of NY life, being an illegal and trying to survive at whatever cost........... going to the depths of despair.
More of an anti-gay propaganda piece.
Most ridiculous plot ever...
