Synopsis:

This Philadelphia-based black-and-white psychological drama was the Grand Prize winner at the 1998 Slamdance Film Festival. After heroin addict Lanh (director/scripter Kevin DiNovis) robs a dealer, he encounters restaurant worker Trevor (Peter Pryor) and takes him in. However, the angry Trevor lusts for power and control. He quickly manipulates his new roommate into a master-slave relationship, forcing Lanh to pose in drag as 'Dorothy,' a creation who becomes the focus of Trevor's sexual aberrations and physical abuse.

Trevor is a 26-year-old busboy who is obsessed with, but terrified of, women. Trevor takes in a 19-year-old, heroin-addicted drifter and uses the young man's addiction to manipulate, coerce and, ultimately, terrorize him into becoming 'Dorothy'--Trevor's twisted conception of the 'ideal woman.'
