This is the story of a committed gay couple in New York City where one of the guys is getting ready to leave the country for work and how that impacts them. The remaining guy is still hung up on his former boyfriend, who is near the end of his life. It was a fairly good story that got a little whimsical at times. The film quality wasn't good though, it was from 1986, but looked like the early 70's.
