Home At Last

The Catholic church condemns suicide and homosexuality. Both can send you to hell for eternity. Mitch LaRue is Catholic and has lost his mother to suicide. And, he’s secretly in love with the sophomore class president, Dennis Dauth.


Mitch’s two closest friends are Dave Fladlien and Bruce Bermel. Dave is sweet, paunchy, and effeminate. Bruce is obese. The three boys are brutally persecuted by the homophobic student body and faculty. 


Mitch has weekly counseling sessions with one of the very few kind priests. In these sessions, he explores how Dave has been paying a street hustler for sex, and has fallen in love with the 16-year-old runaway and taken him “home.” Mitch can also celebrate his singing with a rock band. And, most importantly, he can figure out when to make love with Dennis, who has an infant son.


Will Dennis's homosexual relationship with Mitch prove him an unfit father, so he loses his infant son to Vanis Forman - pornographer, sex trafficker, pedophile, and the baby’s grandfather? Or, instead, will Mitch and Dennis find a Home At Last?
