Wes Hurley's autobiographical tale of growing up gay in Soviet Union Russia, only to escape with his mother, a mail order bride, to Seattle to face a whole new oppression in his new Christian fundamentalist American dad.

Burlesque icons Luminous Pariah and Chris Harder star in this Tom of Finland inspired queer retelling of The Little Mermaid. A curious merman's life is forever changed after he saves a sailor from drowning in this sexy homage to Hans Christian Andersen, vintage homoerotica and the golden era of silent film. Part of an anthology series by Wes Hurley that includes Zolushka and Peter and the Wolf.
