JOHN, a naive cop who after being "outed" in his small conservative hometown journeys to West Hollywood to experience an openly gay life-style. He quickly falls into the fast-paced, beauty-oriented, glamorous and drug-laced world of the Circuit Party scene. Here he strives to stay afloat in a ever deepening pool of hustling, money, sex, and deception. John is introduced into the party world by his cousin TAD, a struggling filmmaker/fitness trainer who is making a documentary film on the Circuit party phenomenon. Tad is our objective story-teller and leads us through this strange new world. Tad introduces John to HECTOR, a stunning Latin hustler, addicted to plastic surgery. Hector devalues everything about himself but his external beauty. He is controlled by the party promoter, GINO, a devious, straight, drug-dealing puppeteer who reaps profit from gays at every turn. Gino spins a fraudulent insurance scam around video star, model, icon, BOBBY. The plot thickens as everyone's path crosses and snares approaching the annual Palm Springs White Party (the mother of all Circuit parties). John is helped by his best friend from high school, NINA, a rather desperate, but noble stand-up comic wannabee. GILL, a handsome, mature, spiritually grounded gay man also helps guide John out of his dark abyss and leads him into a stable love relationship. Some Circuit Boys find great pleasure and healthy recreation in the fast-paced party world. John and Tad are able to learn life's lessons when they surface back to reality, however others are not so lucky. -- © 2001 Sneak Preview Entertainment [More]
