A tender, introspective exploration of how a single moment between lifelong friends unravels certainties and opens pathways to self-discovery and love.

Two childhood best friends are asked to share a kiss for the purposes of a student short film. Soon, a lingering doubt sets in, confronting both men with their preferences, threatening the brotherhood of their social circle, and, eventually, changing their lives.
