    • Synopsis
    • The critically acclaimed drama from director Rodney Evans (Brother To Brother) focuses on two young NYC couples—one black and gay, one white and straight—whose lives become intertwined. Tired of dating Stan (Cameron Scoggins), Annie (Sorel Carradine - The Good Doctor) pretends to be seeing her female coworker, Mandy (Maria Dizzia - Orange Is The New Black). Heartbroken, Stan finds himself hooking up with Marcus (LeRoy McClain), who just started having an open relationship with his long-term boyfriend, Aaron (Charlie Barnett - Chicago Fire, Gayby). As they explore new relationships and redefine monogamy, a chance encounter on a subway platform makes each of them reevaluate their sense of who they are and what they want.
