How sport transforms lives in the gay community

This touching and personal film explores how, from ice hockey to rugby and rodeo, gay men are discovering the bonds of acceptance and camaraderie through sports; in a world where hate and homophobia still persist. Growing up as the middle child in a strict Mormon family, Spencer Windes never found a place he felt truly comfortable. That all changed when he discovered the San Francisco Fog: a rugby team consisting entirely of gay men. Building on his own coming of age story, Windes discovers a whole diverse culture of gay amateur sports, and the wonderful and transformative impact that it has.
