Farce about the casting of a gay actor in a gay role on a television series which had previously been played by a straight actor. 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. As Kerry prepares for the media onslaught, he is hiding something which could ruin everything. 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.
