About this title
A documentary about art, love, and the queer diaspora. It follows the journey an artist (William Bond Walker) and his subject (John Balkema) from their meeting in 1950s middle-America to their migration to the gay metropolis of New York City and rural Columbia County in upstate New York. They were life-partners for more than sixty years before they both died in 2017.
