Directed by Kelli Herd
Comedy
In the small southern town of Azalea Springs, the country club set still
rules. But the real frenzy begins with a drunken
comment regarding the local drinking water. Rumor has it that the
water is contaminated with something that actually "turns" people gay.
Mix in Brother Daniel's "Homo-No-Mo" meetings, the local newspaper, and
a group of rabid homophobic picketers, and you've got a recipe for
panic. Heads reel. Women weep. Mothers, hide your children! In the
midst of it all, we find Alex Stratton, a young woman dealing with a
distant husband, an overbearing mother, and the tedium of meaningless
society chatter and endless shoe critics. Going against her husband's
and her mother's wishes, Alex accepts a job at the Hospice where she is
reacquainted with Grace Miller, her best friend from high school who has
returned to Azalea Springs after a nasty divorce. It is here that Alex
falls out of 'grace' with society when the two are caught kissing in
the Hospice supply room. The events that unravel as a result of this and another love
affairs bear witness to what happens when hysteria and homophobia take
control of their lives.
