Five Boyfriends and a Funeral

Logline: a young gay man addicted to the idea of love is forced by the death of his best friend to re-examine the five relationships that shaped — and distorted — his search for 'the one'.

Richard, Rod, Ken, Teddy Edward, John… all doomed, before they began.

Martin, a young gay man searching for the 'one' — the man who will love just him — blunders his way through five disastrous relationships, each exploding and imploding in hilarity and sorrow, looked on by his best friend whose untimely death forces him to make a momentous decision.

Martin is lost and miserable. He is struggling to come to terms with his homosexuality, his father's loathing, and is desperate to find a man to love, to validate the pain of leaving his fiancée.

He seeks love and acceptance, stumbling from one boyfriend to the next, in the hope that the next will be the ONE. None of them was.
