A gay artist and telemarketer with a special knack for getting along well with children discovers just how closed-minded the suburbs can be when he attempts to find happiness after losing his godson in writer/director
Peter Paige's affectionate, not-so-
black comedy.
Paul Johnson (
Paige) is a Portland-based artist and telemarketer who loves nothing more in life than the time spent with his two-year-old godson,
Morgan. Upon learning that his best friends the Fabers are moving to Japan and taking their son
Morgan with them,
Paul wallows in a state of deep denial that ultimately results in him missing the Fabers' departing flight. Encouraged by his good friend
Russell (
Anthony Clark) to get out of his house and spend more time with others,
Paul soon ventures out to a local playground, where he finds comfort and joy in the youthful exuberance that surrounds him. When it comes to the concept of a grown homosexual spending time with young children, not everyone in the suburbs can be so accepting, though, and as
Paul attempts to find ways of keeping himself surrounded by his pint-sized pals, nosy neighbor and disapproving mother
Maggie Butler (
Kathy Najimy) rallies a ready army of angry soccer moms to take action and keep
Paul away from the local children.
