When the original star of a fictional gay-themed action series called "Espionage" unexpectedly dies, network executives search for a new actor. They cast Kerry Mitchell (Scott Victor Nelson), an openly-gay unknown. They spin the idea of an openly-gay actor playing a gay role as being something new and refreshing.

Matthew Jett Schaefer and Gabrielle Docktor also star in this independent "mocumentary"-style film co-written and co-directed by Mike Heim and Christopher Long. Written by trivwhiz See less
