Leo is a 22 year old prostitute, in love with another male prostitute; only the guy he's in love with is heterosexual. He clearly cares for Leo, but cares more about his material well-being, even if it means 'bunking up' with an old man. Leo is different. He needs love, but not forced love. But at what cost? A slowly affecting drama which made me appreciate the love I have. 7.5 out of ten
