Additional InformationA conservative Presbyterian mother reaches out to the gay community for support after driving her homosexual son to suicide in this TV movie adapted from Leroy Aaron's 1995 novel. Bobby Griffith (Ryan Kelley) hails from a devoutly Christian family. Lately Bobby's been questioning his own sexuality, and upon confiding this information to his older brother, the news quickly circulates to their parents and other siblings. While Bobby's father and siblings resolve to stand by him despite their opposition to his startling revelation, his mother Mary (Sigourney Weaver) believes that her son is committing a sin, and encourages him to change his ways with the help of the church. Despondent over his experiences in the church, Bobby decides that his best option is to move out of the family home, all the while hoping that his mother will find a means of accepting him for who he is. But Mary is staunch in her position, and when Bobby realises he'll never live up to his mother's expectations he takes his own life. Devastated, Mary seeks consolation from her pastor but fails to find the answers she's looking for. In time, Mary begins a dialogue with the gay community, and discovers that sometimes support can come from the places we least expect.

  • A way of life......?

    An excellent film but how religion can influence life changing decisions. I thought those days were long behind us-but no. Bigotry still exists and still ends lives. When will these people realise being gay is not a life choice but a way of life. There is nothing we can do about it. I'll get off my soap box now.!!a very thought provoking film.
