What would you do with $500? Hit the tropics? Buy a new DVD player? If you're the young Canadian filmmaker Richard Bell, you create your first feature film, Two Brothers - a moving, haunting elegy of family pain and redemption that has garnered praise and awards across North America. It has been six years since Chad left home, leaving the younger Riley to care for their mother. Now, after her death, Riley moves to the big city to reconcile with his brother and explore his repressed sexuality. At first, his dreams come true as he falls into the welcoming arms of his brother and the loving arms of a boyish hitchhiker. But true happiness comes only when he faces the ghosts that haunt his family and the harsh realities that threaten his first love. Also included are two shorts by Lawrence Ferber: Cruise Control, starring David Drake (The Night Larry Kramer Kissed Me, Philadelphia) and Anthony Rapp (Rent, Broadway Damage), and Birthday Time, about a boy who decides to celebrate his 18th birthday by losing his virginity!
