How do you find a sense of
belonging when you’re not accepted by your own family, let alone society?
Veteran fashion photographer turned writer and director Cati Gonzalez puts
homeless LGBTQ youth under the microscope in a vivid portrayal of a too-often
overlooked community.
After being kicked out by
his homophobic father, a young teenager Ekaj (Jake Mestre) drifts on the
hustling streets of New York City struggling to get by. When he befriends Mecca
(Badd Idea), a thief and artist diagnosed with AIDS, the naïve Ekaj learns
about the hardships of love, loss, and survival.
