Available Summary:

"Elijah and Billy are two trans bros who just happen to enjoy jerking off together -- in a straight way! But when Billy starts dating a woman, Elijah must come to terms with his feelings for Billy and his own burgeoning homosexuality. Raunchy, campy, and heartfelt, "Bros Before" is a second puberty coming-of-age story saturated with sex, drugs, and hyperpop." -Gonella Productions, Vimeo.


Jack's Summary:

This is a silly, campy, gay, trans short film. Lots of slurs, drinking, smoking, explicit content, and drama. Trans-directed, starring amateur trans actors Radcliffe Adler and Marten Katze. Just a bit of fun! But probably don't watch it if you're sensitive to homophobic slurs.
