Storyline
Bobby, the youngest boy in an Irish Catholic family, is in the closet. His coming out to his brothers and the family's way of dealing with the news form the basis of this film.
Bobby is a gay man in the closet in 2003, afraid to come out to his three older brothers, although he's at least 30 and is being pressed by his sister, his boyfriend, and his lesbian beard to tell the lads. His father's death and a fishing trip with his brothers provide occasions for him to tell them, but he fails. When he screws up his courage to the sticking point, how will they react, and how will he deal with their reactions? He imagines a movie of his rather boring life--surrounded by possibilities--but can anything overcome the insular narrow-mindedness of a big Irish Catholic family in Chicago?
