Dates Showing: June 20-26
Showtimes: 2:50P 7:30P
 Synopsis:
Ricky is left alone to house-sit after the couple he
shares a bed with go away for the holidays. When he learns
that his relationship with them is about to end, he tries
to find human connection through internet hookups and
anonymous sex. These transitory romps seem to do nothing
to combat his loneliness and isolation, so he begins to
consider more drastic measures. Ricky is a lost boy
looking for love in all the wrong places, but will he
learn that what he needs more than sex is friendship
before his planned Christmas Eve farewell? Like an
anti-war film about war, this is an anti-anonymous sex
film about anonymous sex. This is a human story about
treating others humanely and the power of friendship and
savoring relationships as opposed to instant
gratification.
