This sweet film by the director/writer of "Coffee Date" features the story of a young man in high school dealing with his homosexuality. As an African American, and the quarterback of the high school's football team, he's feeling the pressure to pass when a new student enters the picture. She's the daughter of two mom's (and two dads!), and becomes for him the catalyst for his coming out. The film features a handful of progressive actors in wonderful cameos, Alec Mapa, Jane Lynch, Nichelle Nickols, Marcia Wallace, and Bruce Vilanch. In an homage to gay athletes everywhere, David Kopay makes a brief appearance, as well. Wonderful little film!
