The Frailest Leaves

On the graveyard shift of their tenuous job, two young men crash into each other's lives with unexpected desire and intimacy, and their nights are filled with poetry and unspoken truths. Exploring queerness, privilege, and belonging, "The Frailest Leaves" exposes the beauty of connection and the cost of being seen.
