Synopsis

Best friends Chase (Dante’s Cove darling actor/writer Charlie David) and suspiciously straight Tyler (blonde bombshell Derek Baynham) are spending the summer together with Tyler’s golf-obsessed, perfect family. After he comes out, Chase risks losing Tyler’s friendship – but finds a surprising ally in Tyler’s father Nathan (muscle Mary Dan Payne). However, as Chase and Nathan putt around each other, one man’s coming-out inspires an older man’s sexual awakening. Meanwhile, Nathan’s wife Stacy (Blonde Bombshell Number Two, Queer as Folk alumna Thea Gill), is distracted from the distance between them, by daughter Birdie’s fascination with her female tennis coach…and her interest in piercing and vegetarianism. Will Chase and Nathan’s blossoming tee-off for two circumvent the sand traps of true love? Chip Hale overcomes earnest performances and an occasionally awkward script with great production values and thoughtful scoring, in this ambitious queer retelling of The Graduate. A film about second chances on the links of life and love, Abercrombie & Fitch appear to direct this fairway to heaven.
