Summaries

Two gay teenagers go on the run after witnessing a murder.

The 16 year-old gay Eddie (Emile Charles) runs away from home, where he's constantly harassed by his abusive father (Louis Emerick). With his friend Michael, he witnesses at the gay disco "Fruit Machine" how its owner (Robbie Coltrane) is slayed by killer Echo (Bruce Payne). They run away, but now the killer's after them--however, after Eddie visits a dolphin show, he's more concerned about their life than his.—Tom Zoerner <[email protected]>
