As classmates, shy, artistic Sonny and charming, popular Gunner had nothing to do with one another, but now, in the stifling climate of Eisenhower America, where prejudice and paranoia rule the day, the two young men find in each other the strength to change their lives and futures. Each must choose between the suffocating, but familiar comforts offered to them by their mothers and their old flames and friends, or the exciting, but uncertain futures represented by a pair of enthralling new romantic prospects. Theirs is an emotionally fraught journey - especially for Sonny, who struggles with self-doubt and thoughts of suicide - but one leavened by moments of humor, uplift, and self-discovery.
