Nursing a broken heart and enduring a black & white winter, gay Parisian Jerome impulsively books a solo Christmas vacation to colourful Los Angeles. While there he meets some eccentric locals and pursues a dormant desire to become a movie star — but never can quite put the past behind him.

Jason Bushman's honest and sweet debut showcases not only an emerging artist to watch for, but also the acting talents of Eric Debets as Jerome, gay heartthrob Chad Allen as a hunky stoner, and Michael Airington as the mysterious Norma Desire.
