Jim is throwing watermelons from his office roof, testing the effect for a possible suicide. During one of his experiments he sees Sammy on an adjacent rooftop, about to jump herself. Dean is an artist unable to fulfil the potential of his creativity. He needs a muse - and who better than Gina, the experimental prostitute who lives next door. Olly is lost in a world of sexual confusion; forced to look after his deaf-mute brother Chris for the day, Olly discovers that not only does Chris have gay feelings too, but is more comfortable with them than he is. But no one has a darker story than Pete, who is being stalked by Carol, a woman looking for her son – a man Pete knew from his violent drug days. They begin a treacherous journey to find an almost forgotten suitcase. Connections are made or missed and longed-for families brought together for a moment of hope. ReviewsAintitcool.com
