The Rescue

Directed by Philippe Gosselin2011USA20 mins

The Rescue tells the story of Miguel, who decides to go looking for a new mate at the boyfriend pound (aka the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Boyfriends, or SPCB). Jasmine, the matron of the pound, takes Miguel on a tour of the potential boyfriends, a wide selection ranging from twinks to bears, gym bunnies, drag divas and everything in between. All of them are hoping to be picked because sadly, if they don't find a placement within a week, there is no other option but to put them down. Will Miguel find true love at the pound? Who will he rescue?
