Flyfishing

Synopsis

Flyfishing: A story of love and sexual discovery.

Two men become escorts. Their debts diminish. Their problems mount.

And their lives fall to pieces. Flyfishing combines the oldest profession in the world with time-honored truths of love - that it hurts, that there is someone for everyone and that no matter what the odds, true love conquers all. The result is the most unlikely of fairy tales. A romantic comedy without a trace of sentiment.

And a cinematic first closing frame!
