A young man's view on love is abruptly changed when he goes looking for his boyfriend who seemingly disappeared in the desert.
Inspired by Michelangelo Antonioni's 1961 classic L'Avventura, Michael Akers' "PHOENIX" is infused with symbolism and a sexy spark. Dylan Wells (Chad Edward Bartley) has a good job, a great apartment and an exciting relationship with Ken Sparks (Gaetano Jones, Boystown), his sexy well traveled boyfriend who just might be "the one." A great life, or so he believes, until Ken's visit for Dylan's 23rd birthday party is unexpectedly cut short when Ken is suddenly called away to tend to a failing real estate deal, and then disappears.

Having much in common with Michelangelo Antonioni's 1961 film L'AVVENTURA, PHOENIX is a suspense story ripe with sensual energy and drama. Dylan Wells has a great life. With a cool apartment, awesome boyfriend, and great job, it seems like he's got it all. But when his lover Ken mysteriously disappears after a supposedly urgent phone call, Ken embarks on a journey which reveals truths he may not be prepared to learn.
