This
screwball romp explores the comically
bumbling way we come out to the people we
love — whether we’re gay or straight. In
Manhattan, Alex gets engaged to Dana, and
tells him that her entire family is dead. The truth
is that she doesn’t think her South Carolina clan
will accept a Jewish, African-American in-law.
When she attends the wedding of her highmaintenance sister, her best
friend unwittinglystarts a rumor that Alex is gay and Dana is a
woman. Now entangled by her lies, Alex
struggles to come to terms with her fiancé, her
family and most of all, herself.
Unable to afford an engagement ring, a lesbian
involves her gay friend in a farcical heist that goes horribly
wrong.
