Spoilers ahead

Andrew Glaszek plays Andrew, a gay city-dwelling man who travels with his lover, Jeremy Neal as Kyle, to the mountains to clear out his estranged father’s hoarder-filled home. The journey quickly shifts from a routine cleanout to something far more opaque and emotionally charged, as the trio confronts a complicated past and uneasy present.

There they encounter Chris Graham as Birch, a leather worker who has been living in the father’s house and who has just ended a straight relationship with a woman who moved away. Birch’s presence unsettles the delicate balance Andrew hoped to maintain, and his arrival introduces a volatile mix of charm, secrecy, and need.
