Comments
A short film where we have a closeted boy being given a prostitute for his sixteenth birthday by his apparently clueless father. Clueless because the father has no idea about his son. The "present" is not some sort of perverse "cure" for gayness, but rather something the father feels is normal to do for his son to become a "man."
The situation is messed up and the movie acknowledged this as the kid and prostitute talk and make a connection.
It tells a lot in it's short timespan and is worth a watch.
