FAMILY MEAL - BRYAN WASHINGTON KARTONIERT (TB)

Growing up   TJ was Cam's boy next door. When Cam needed a home  TJ's parents - Mae and Jin -
took him in. Their family bakery became Cam's safe place. Until he left  and it wasn't anymore.
Years later  Cam's world is falling apart. The love of his life  Kai  is gone: but his ghost
keeps haunting Cam  and won't let go. And Cam's not sure he wants to let go  not sure he's
ready. When he has a chance to return to his home town  to work in a gay bar clinging on in a
changing city landscape  he takes it. Back in the same place as TJ  they circle each other
warily  their banter electric with an undercurrent of betrayal  drawn together despite past and
current drama. Family is family. But TJ is no longer the same person Cam left behind he's had
his own struggles. The quiet  low-key  queer kid  the one who stayed home  TJ's not sure how to
navigate Cam - utterly cool  completely devastated and self-destructing - crashing back into
his world. When things said - or left unsaid - become so insurmountable that they devour us
from within  hope and sustenance and friendship can come from the most unlikely source.
Nourishment has many forms: eating croissants  sitting together at a table with bowls of curry
sharing history  confronting demons  growing flowers  showing up. This is a story about how the
people who know us the longest can hurt us the most  but how they also set the standard for
love  and by their necessary presence  create a family.
