It was February 29th, a leap year of all things, the day his life went to hell, but Adrian hardly paid much attention. He had never actually read about anything bad happening on that date and wasn’t looking for anything bad to happen either. At least not to him. But something bad DID happen. Something so bad, so very wrong, that he feared his life would never be the same again…

“It is said that a mind is a terrible thing to waste…
For some, it is also a very terrifying thing to lose…”
Logline: “Wrongfully incarcerated, an innocent gay man must rely on his feminine nature to survive as he struggles to maintain his sanity against the uncertainty of unpredictable cellmates and the jailhouse mentality that threatens to break him.”

What could possibly go wrong for a sensitive effeminate male unexpectedly incarcerated in a room full of unpredictable strangers? For Adrian Bailey, just about everything, and in the midst of constant fear, lies, prejudice, and madness, he finds more…
Under false pretenses, Adrian Bailey finds himself arrested and locked up in the local county jail for the first time in his life. Despite all the horror stories he had read or heard of concerning life behind bars, nothing was like the actual experience. Not only was he utterly devastated and confused over the situation he was unjustly thrown into, but also lost at the mercy of whatever actions that could or would be made against him, including prejudice from someone of his own race. As the madness of his experiences take control, he fears his only recourse is to succumb to whatever means necessary to survive.
The traumatic events that occur thereafter would surpass everything Adrian thought he ever knew about real life. And then he finds what he never expected: an intense three-way love affair that would test every remaining fiber of his mental stability and then some. The love of one would only add to his mental deterioration, while his connection to the other would at some point give him peace. Worst of all, there wasn’t one thing he could do to stop any of it. Not one damn thing at all…

Note: Not many would know the emotional impact that society has over a quiet, sensitive gay person because they are the ones who are rarely seen or heard. Send that person into a difficult, life-altering situation and what comes out of it is a heart wrenching, inspirational story never expected and one that many would never dare to admit.
