While driving to a business meeting young and handsome Justin runs off the road to avoid a rabbit. Lucky for him he finds Angora Ranch, a farm owned by hunk Jack, a man almost twice Justin's age. Just and Jack feel the heat between them immediately, while the issue of their difference in age slowly melts away they face another problem: each of their meddling fathers. Jack's dad is nosy, pushy and waiting for Jack to settle down. Justin's father is all business and never thinks his son will amount to anything. Justin and Jack slowly discover that each is what the other has been searching for all their lives, if only they can figure out what to do about their fathers. Directed by Paul Bright (also actor in the role of Jack) and released in 2006.

From the director Christopher Hines of the critically-acclaimed film "The Butch Factor" comes an intriguing exploration of gay men's pursuit of physical perfection. When it comes to looks and body image, gay men can be a pretty tough crowd, they have an appreciation for beauty in all aspects, whether it's other male bodies or just antiques. The pressure to look good is even more intense in an image- driven culture where near-naked images of masculine perfection abound. Men are being objectified as never before. From super models as Quentin Elias and muscle boys, to bears and twinks to average Joes, along with experts in the business of beauty, "The Adonis Factor" is a revealing look at gay men's love or lust for all things pretty. Produced by Rogue Culture Inc. in 2010, the documentary has been shown at a number of festivals.
