Always a good rule of thumb to never watch films where the writers are also in the starring roles. They are usually very disappointing. This film is no exception. It's a bit of low budget rubbish that seems to operate on the belief that everyone's life is a story. There's no story here at all. The films is a slow paced pile of rubbish. Don't waste time on it at all!

... with age, a relationship that may be a bit on the rocks, coming out to family, a birthday on a beautiful summer day, and friends gathering to celebrate this birthday.

Director: Ryan Gielen and Writers: Brian W. Seibert, Ricardo Valdez keep this rather complex story confined in the Brooklyn apartment but, you the viewer, find yourself feeling as if you are there with this group of friends and you don't want to leave. It's fun and dramatic.

My only problem with the story was the tension between Will and Mateo. They seem well suited for one another but something is missing in their relationship and it was never really made clear. Even after Mateo apologizes to Will for his one night stand.

A fly-on-the-wall style drama that centres around the 30th birthday party of a gay guy in New York that has a few party games, reveals a few unpleasant secrets and generally retreads a well worn path of gay deceit, campness and betrayal.... In the end, I reckon the piñata got off lightly. Yada yada yada...
