Synopsis |
|
The bizarre death of Peggy Ingraham,
the matriarch of a working-class
Texas family, sets off fireworks
within her dysfunctional family. Her
determinedly proper daughter
Latrelle is in denial over the fact
that her son Ty, an actor trying to
make it in Hollywood, is gay, and is
relieved that her only brother, a
gay drag queen and dedicated Tammy
Wynette impersonator, has been
confined to a mental institution for
23 years simply because he is gay.
Latrelle's brassy sister LaVonda,
however, thinks her brother should
be released from the institution and
has a perfect right to attend their
mother's funeral. Meanwhile, Ty, who
has strived hard to accept his
homosexuality, realizes that there
is no way he can return home for his
grandmother's funeral without coming
out to his mother. |
