Synopsis

Sexually abused by his father and barely tolerated by his mother, Steven vows revenge but “because I couldn’t take it out on my father directly, I knew that it would have to be with someone else. It would be some poor, unsuspecting sucker who would have to shoulder the responsibility of my father’s licentiousness. This whole dilemma became my obsession.” So, 13 year old Steven took his first tentative steps as a rent boy in an English provincial city. Taken in hand by Andy, Steven is inducted into the local gay rent scene by a tight knit coterie of lads who provide the care and security denied to him at home. Juggling the demands of the racks, school, home and his obsession with art, Steven embarks on a journey which would bring pain, laughter and sadness as well as discovering the value of friendship and what monsters some people could be. Steven’s story features many eccentric and comic characters who add a touch of light heartedness and lunacy to a journey in which he lurches from dark encounters to absurd and outrageous situations as well as everything in between.
