A confused young man, just out of the proverbial gay closet, must choose between his lover of nine months and his ultra-religious parents on Christmas Eve.

This is a difficult and heartbreaking situation for the young man to be in. He must choose between two things he loves deeply: his parents and his partner. The best course of action for him is to take some time to think and to talk to someone he trusts. He should also consider his own needs and desires, and whether or not he is prepared to handle the consequences of his decision.
Ultimately, he needs to make a decision that is right for him. He should ask himself if he is happy with his current situation, and whether or not he can live with the decision he makes. If his answer is yes, he should have the courage to follow his heart and make the decision that is best for him, even if it means disappointing his parents. He should also consider the possibility of opening up to his parents in the future and having an honest conversation about his sexuality. They may be surprised, but it is possible for them to learn to accept him for who he is.
Yes, it’s an independent film, but something worth watching — especially around the holiday season. It doesn’t have the best film quality, the best actors or even the best script, but I can definitely see that this is a cute film with a warm feeling — something both those in front and behind the camera are trying sincerely to convey. It was obviously made on a shoestring budget, but I must give credit where credit is due. Others reviewing this film have been extremely hard on the production. Making a film is a very difficult, expensive and time consuming task. Kudos to the cast and crew of “Visions of Sugarplums” for giving a great effort!
