Breaking Glass Pictures will release the poignant, moving, LGBTQ homeless youth-centric tale HOOKED in Los Angeles theaters June 1, 2018 and on DVD/VOD June 5, 2018.
Eighteen-year-old hustler Jack and his boyfriend Tom are an item, close and very much in love. However, Jack tends to be very impulsive with his body and emotionally explosive. Ken, a married man who hasn't come out of the closet, decides to take Jack from NYC to Miami with the intention of helping him before it's too late.
Not just a cautionary tale of life on the streets, HOOKED is proud to announce that a percentage of the profits from the film will be donated to non-profits and partner organizations to support the homeless LGBTQ youth demographic. Partner organizations include the Ali Forney Center, the Los Angeles LGBT Center, Albert KENNEDY TRUST (UK), Lost and Found, and GLAAD.
CAST: Conor Donnally, Sean Ormond, Terrance Murphy, Jay Alan Christianson ("Black-ish"), Jared Sandler (Sandy Wexler), Laura Austin, Steve Hayes (Big Gay Musical), Katie McClellan (The Room). DIRECTOR/WRITER: Max Emerson
"It's apparent that LGBTQ kids need a place they can go to be safe... to find guidance from people who actually identify with the things they are going through. It's not special treatment, it's a necessity." - Max at the European Diversity Awards.
