The story

The film begins as a mini-documentary of New York City's 1973 Gay Pride parade and rally, with a lesbian unabashedly declaring, "being gay is a very natural thing". The action cuts to the protagonist, David (Robert Joel), going through the ritual of being released from his vocation as a monk in a monastery. He is then seen as a public school teacher of English Literature in the New York City area, who spends his time off driving into the city to be with his "oldest friend from Schenectady", Alan (Jay Pierce) at a gay bar.
