Sam (Tony Award-winning Alan Cumming) is an artist and ACT UP activist who lived through the early years of the HIV/AIDS crisis and now struggles with survivor’s guilt. He’s bewildered by the younger generation of gay men who have no memory of those dark times, until he meets the sexy and seductive Braeden at a bar late one night. Their pants quickly come down and, eventually, so does Sam’s guard. But what happens when generations and worlds collide?
