Synopsis

Winston begins his freshman year at NYU already aware of his sexuality and uncertain about where it will take him. He develops strong feelings for Tom, his temporary roommate, who is set to move to L.A., making it a risky decision for Winston to express them. At the same time, the Village offers numerous temptations and possibilities: sexual encounters in public restrooms, uninhibited socializing at parties, and encounters with Act-uppers. Winston also experiences confusing signals, such as those from a Moonie. With support from his hometown friend Anne, he maintains his balance and discovers an ideal meeting spot: the Judy Garland section at Tower Records.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 14

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
