The deteriorating friendship of two motel dwellers comes to a crashing halt on this ill-fated night.

Dmitri, a twenty-year-old sex addict, squats in an abandoned garage with his mentally ill father, shamelessly using the kindness of an old friend who’s returned home for Christmas break as a means of escape and pleasure.

Peter, a former college roommate of Diego is hiking the Appalachian Trail. Diego and Sam, boyfriends, prepare for his arrival. As Peter settles in and stakes his claim it becomes clear there is more to Diego and Peter's prior relationship than what might have been previously disclosed. While Diego and Peter rekindle their connection, Sam's paranoia rears its head as jealousy and desire intertwine. As the backyard fire burns so do passions as both men are unable to resist Peter's bisexual lure. The nature of Diego and Sam's relationship could be forever altered as the acknowledgment of attraction poses an unprecedented threat to this otherwise stable relationship.
