“Winning Dad”
Tweetable Logline:
Elevator Pitch:
respects it, but ignores everything about that aspect of his son’s life –
he doesn’t even know about Colby’s long-term boyfriend, Rusty.
Increasingly committed to Rusty, Colby hatches a plan to trick his
father into camping with Rusty under the pretense that Rusty is Colby’s
straight friend and future business partner. Colby is convinced that,
given the chance, his father and his boyfriend will get along great… or
so we shall see.

About the Production:
great progress we have made this last year in the United States over

strengthens romantic love, and that romantic love—even gay
love—strengthens family love too.” — Case Barden
