Synopsis:

In a high school, on a massage table, in a dark tunnel, under a kitchen sink, within a family, and even in an elevator; this series of seemingly unrelated short plays are all connected by one unifying theme. They all show us the different types of encounters that can occur between men and boys as they relentlessly pursue the very real human desire to reach out and connect.
