ABOUT THE DIRECTOR

Monty Wolfe has quickly established himself as the king of twee queer cinema. With 3 award-winning narrative shorts to his credit and now a feature length film, he has firmly established that quality queer cinema can be as delightfully cringe as straight cinema. He and film partner Ian Southworth use the moody Pacific Northwest as the backdrop for their wholesomely yet honest LGBTQ collaborations.
