Sometimes a film doesn’t have to bang a loud drum. Sometimes it is enough to enjoy a pleasing production, talented actors (Molly Shannon, Missi Pyle & Paul Reiser) and a charming, sweet, good looking gay kid with a dream. Miles is a high school senior in a hick town, desperate to go to college in the city. But his good-for-nothing father squandered his college money on tawdry affairs. The solution? A volleyball scholarship! Unfortunately, his high school doesn’t have a boys volleyball team, so he joins the girls team, much to the horror of townspeople. Nathan Adlo ’s biographical film is a simple story about a kid who happens to be gay and will do anything to get to college. At the end of the day, Miles is just a guy with a dream and maybe we need to let ourselves believe that sometimes sweet still exists, good guys win and dreams do come true. (Sunny Hall)

Director Nathan Adloff is scheduled to attend.
