Synopsis: In 1934 in Berlin Max and his lover Rudy are recovering from a drinking and sexual encounter with a homosexual SA trooper. Two storm troopers burst into the apartment and slit their guest's throat, beginning a nightmare odyssey through Nazi Germany which ranked homosexuals on a lower human scale than Jews. They flee to a straight cabaret singer who performs in drag. He scornfully gives them the money he got from the Nazis for revealing their address. On the run, Max meets his discreetly homosexual Uncle Freddie who suggests that Max get married and practice, as he does, homosexuality on the side. Max refuses to abandon Rudy. They're caught and enroute in a boxcar to Dachau. When Rudy is beaten to death, Horst, another homosexual prisoner, warns Max to deny knowing him. At Dachau, he and Horst plan to survive but it is not to be.

Starring: Justin Brooks, Ronnie Hargrave, Jeremiah Heitman, Joshua Hensley, David Rock, Lorenzo Salazar and Brandon Turner.
