Re-Entry (excerpt)

Synopsis:

Jordan was raised in a strict Catholic home.  Despite the total lack of acceptance, he and Wes have lived as a gay couple for many years.  But now, as the result of an accident, he must enter an aged care facility.  As he and Wes never married, his sister has been named as his guardian.  She has placed him in a conservative Catholic institution where, to all intents and purposes, he must re-enter the closet.  We follow his story from 1961 right through to the present day.
