DON’T FRIGHTEN THE HORSES

(Short Film, 8min)

Jesse desperately wants to hold Derek’s hand, but he soon remembers that a bus stop is not a safe space for public displays of queer affection. A suggestive glance between them becomes more than they bargained for. True love takes courage, but in LA no one is braver than a gay who eats carbs.
