The relationship between a father who comes out late in life and his son is the beating heart of this dramedy. Christopher Plummer won an Oscar for his portrayal of Hal, a widower who begins living life as a gay man after the death of his wife. As he explores the gay community and falls in love again, Hal learns how to be more open with himself and with others, including his son, Oliver, with whom he's had a complicated relationship. Inspired by his father's new outlook, Oliver himself tries to open up, be more honest, and pursue love even when it's scary.
