Plot
Working at a men-only massage shop and hopping between gay porn auditions, Tiger heads to his hometown one day after hearing his father is critically ill. His father intends to leave the house to his son and the dental clinic to his daughter. However, his sister denies Tiger’s right to inherit, threatening him with the prospect of outing him. Through time spent with a married friend he hasn’t seen in years and while looking after his young niece, Tiger realizes that he also wants to be part of a ‘family’ and begins to explore ways to build one in his own way through a ‘friendship marriage.’
