Dream Boy is a moving film based on Jim Grimsley’s stunning and tragic novel about gay first love. When the shy Nathan moves next door to the charismatic Roy, the boys strike up an immediate friendship. As they grow physically attracted to each other, the two must keep their desires secret or face violent backlash from their rural backwoods community.  Nathan has moved to a new town — apparently his family moves often and rather quickly. Nathan’s dad is a nasty, violent drunk and his mother stands by, helplessly watching her son crumble under the abuse. Luckily Nathan has hiding places where he’s safe with his fantasies. The boy has developed a crush on his blond-haired neighbor Roy, which quickly turns from daydreams to reality.  Purchase Via PayPal! $15
