Synopsis "Boy: A Journey"

Luke may never have been close to his father, but he feels like he knew him. Jay was a frustrating parent - always urging Luke to go to mortuary school, disapproving of his Broadway aspirations, and favoring his other children. He even had the audacity to die mid-argument, forcing additional guilt on Luke for never meeting his expectations. However, Luke's assumptions about Jay are thrown into turmoil at the funeral when an enigmatic stranger, Tom, expresses gratitude that Jay finally shared his past with his children. When Luke can't hide his confusion, Tom realizes his mistake and bolts. Riddled with questions, Luke confronts his family. He is shocked to discover that everyone guards the truth that Jay was a transgender man who'd been raised as a female. Practiced at keeping his father's secrets, they're unwilling to reveal anything further at Luke's demand. Devastated by Jay's lack of trust in him, Luke feels forced to abandon the family who deceived him although leaving them behind won't answer his questions. To discover the reason his father hid his gender identity, Luke seeks the only other person with answers, Tom. In Luke's eyes, he is owed an explanation, even if it's a difficult one. However, Tom harbors a deep protective devotion to Jay, a loyalty he feels the truth would betray. Additionally, as a man suffering with terminal cancer, he has no desire to drudge up painful memories by playing Luke's Virgil. Luke must earn his trust before the secret past of both men dies with Tom.
