In a delirious summer rush, teenage father Gabriel falls in love with enigmatic Corey, the girlfriend of his best friend Joel. Deeply hurt about their deceitful intentions, Joel reveals the truth about Gabriel‘s entangled past – there isn’t just one child. Overwhelmed with ‘the biggest decision of his life’, Gabriel is thrown into the wilderness of his heart, where fantasy replaces reality.

When I witnessed the birth of my son and the death of my friends, an identical sensation shot through my body – as if catching a glimpse through a sudden crack in the empty sky.
