✦ Synopsis

The End of Billy Knight is a surprising, genre-bending blend of dark literary fiction and playful gay romp. It moves between sex, humor, and sorrow to reach beyond the obvious stereotypes.

Mike is a handsome young man who works as a gay hustler in the streets and bars of Cincinnati. When a trick goes wrong one night, he decides to change his life.

Dale is an aging drag queen who spends most of his life performing as the fabulous Sasha Zahore. She's the star attraction at the Lucky Pony, a rundown bar in Los Angeles.

It's the 1980s, and Sasha has a dream. She wants to break into the emerging gay porn industry and direct high quality films. Porn so good it'll make even your mama proud.

The night Mike and Sasha meet, their lives become connected and their dreams intertwine. Very quickly Sasha becomes determined to make Mike hers - in more ways than one. But when nobody believes a drag queen can direct gay porn, and when Mike doesn't return Sasha's feelings in precisely the way she'd hoped, how far will she go to get what she wants?

The End of Billy Knight is a complicated portrayal of two flawed and deeply sympathetic souls, both lost in their search for meaning, fulfillment and love.
