In this coming-of-age tale, Rory is a typical high school student – he runs track, smokes up, and has a lousy after-school job. His career so far consists of delivering chicken to suburbanites. But on a delivery like any other, Rory meets Pete, a middle-aged man in the midst of a breakdown, and Rory is drawn into a friendship with him. Their platonic friendship proves to be a catalyst: Rory’s sexuality forces him to reconsider his small world, as his curiosity propels him to take a risk. This film explores the challenging, heady and painful process of a teen’s understanding of the very core of his being – his own sexuality.
