Synopsis

"Every time I go home, I feel like I'm walking into a Tennessee Williams Play." Jason Potts says the words to his partner in their New York apartment before he returns to his small Tennessee hometown for a quick family visit. Once there, Jason realizes that things have not gotten better for the LGBT youth. Jason wants to help the closeted teenagers take a small step forward, but before he knows it; things spiral out of control and he is now in charge of the first gay pride parade in the sleepy small town.

Unknown to Jason, a city councilman and conservative minister plot to use the parade to out the gay teenagers and round them up and send them to an ex-gay ministry camp.
