Holding Trevor

In a profound state of emotional indecision, Trevor Holden (Brent Gorski) finds himself ensnared in a toxic relationship with Darrell (Christopher Wyllie), a charming yet self-destructive heroin addict. This stagnant dynamic is reflected in his mundane job and the superficial social scene of Los Angeles, where conversations rarely extend beyond trivial questions like, “So, are you an actor?”

Amidst such dissatisfaction, Trevor’s bonds with his roommate Andie (Melissa Searing) and singer Jake (Jay Brannan) begin to unravel, as each grapples with their own search for meaning. A pivotal moment arises during a chance encounter at a hospital, where Trevor is there to support his troubled boyfriend following another overdose. Here, he meets Ephram (Eli Kranski), a kind-hearted and driven medical intern with striking good looks, whose presence sparks a flicker of hope and renewal within Trevor.

Following a romantic evening that seems to promise an escape from his past, Trevor takes decisive steps to reclaim his life—starting with ending his tumultuous relationship with Darrell and making an effort to reconnect with Andie and Jake. However, a celebration intended to mark the good news of Andie’s negative HIV test results turns somber when she learns her true status due to a reckless encounter.

Tensions escalate at the party when Trevor confronts Darrell, leaving Ephram feeling hurt and uncertain about the future of their budding relationship. In the wake of tragedy, as Trevor faces the devastating loss of his ex-boyfriend to yet another overdose, he is left grappling with sorrow and guilt. During this turbulent time, Ephram provides a source of comfort, confessing his feelings and suggesting a fresh start together in New York City.

As Andie, reeling from her shocking revelation, begs Trevor for support, he finds himself torn between nurturing a newfound love and aiding a friend in distress. Ultimately, Trevor understands that some relationships are too vital to forsake. Despite his internal struggle, he resolves to take control of his destiny, recognizing that true growth often entails difficult choices and sacrifices.
