  • Starring: Arye Gross, Eric Schweig
  • Summary: Although it's been years since he was back, Henry Hart, a successful but lonely New York artist, returns to Big Eden, Montana, the town of his childhood, to care for the ailing grandfather who raised him. This uniquely American fable about home and family hits upon the universal longing and hope we each have for finding a place where we are loved, and the unconditional desire to see those that we love find happiness.

    Dares to substitute wit and warmth for the standard gay indie tropes in tackling its tale of an unconventional couple.

    The key to success: The audience must really like both characters and believe that they deserve a fairy-tale ending. That's definitely the case in this nicely acted love story.

    Little of this is plausible, but it is beguiling.

    Stupefyingly benign.
