Keeping Love a Secret

A battered wife and mother takes refuge from her unseen abusive second husband in the Manhattan, New York City apartment of her gay younger son, whose sexuality is unbeknownst to his mother. Her unseen older son is in prison as a sexual offender, but her younger son hides her older son’s unopened letters, written from prison, from her, while also hiding his own sexuality, and his engagement to his long time boyfriend. One night while he is having dinner with his boyfriend/fiancee, she discovers the cache of hidden letters from her older son, which brings his mother great distress, and she confronts him with when he gets home from dinner. The question is, will he be able to tell her that he is gay and engaged too, and will it be more than she can take?
