Every year Rex throws a party for his closest friends in the South End townhouse he has lived for 40 years. The annual party marks a special anniversary, but this year there is something important he has to tell them that may change the course of their lives. Invited at the last minute is a young street kid named Avery who sees Rex and his friends for what they are -White Gays. But what the hell is that supposed to mean? This fast-paced comedy/drama doesn’t pull its punches. Neither do any of the guests at the party.
