A
mystery tale driven both emotionally and politically by two opposing
truths. Truth No. 1: Matt wants to die; his AIDS *bleep*tail no
longer works, his health is failing fast, and he wants to leave
this earth with his friends and family around him. Truth No. 2:
Choosing to die is illegal. Later, when Matt is found dead--it
is discovered that his death was not due to natural causes. Enter
Nick, a sharp Manhattan district attorney, who is investigating
Matt's death--the most recent in a series of unexplained suicide-like
deaths that have taken place in the Chelsea district's gay community.
Now, she is pushing hard to get to the bottom of his death. Nick's
investigation leads her to interview Matt's friends and family,
which triggers a host of flashbacks that reveal secrets about
his life and death. An intricate patchwork of relationships slowly
unfold, explaining the behind-the-scenes events surrounding Matt's
shrouded death.
