Love is dangerous.
Decades-long chronicle of the risky, volatile, and steamy relationship between the charismatic and ambitious Hawk and the pious and idealistic Tim, two political staffers who fall in love at the height of the 1950s Lavender Scare. Through the Vietnam War protests of the 1960s, the drug-fueled disco culture of the 1970s, and the AIDS crisis of the 1980s, the two men’s fiery affair only intensified despite the constant threat of being exposed and losing everything.
