Rock Haven Page #3

Synopsis: Brady (Sean Hoagland), who will shortly be going away to college, is a shy, introspective 18 year old, who moves to the coastal seaside town of Rock Haven with his overprotective, widowed mother Marty (Laura Jane Coles), who is setting up a Christian school nearby. He spends a lot of time on the beach, either reading the bible or staring at the waves crashing on shore, until he meets a neighbour's free- spirited visiting son, 19 year old Clifford (Owen Alabado). There is an instant attraction to each other, even though homosexuality conflicts with Brady's devoutly Christian beliefs. Brady has struggled with his feelings before and spends a lot of time showering, as if to scrub these feelings away. He seeks advice from his pastor (played by David Lewis, the director), who tries to reassure him by emphasising biblical texts which portray God as non-condemnatory love. Brady's mother, sensing that something is wrong, tries to fix him up with a nice Christian girl - who knows immediately th

it'll calm your nerves.

Mom not now.

You really do think I'm a kook.

I'm the kook.

Hear me out for a second.

Promise me you won't get jaded...

that you'll keep searching for

those truths,

those truths that give you peace.

Hi Dad.

It's Clifford.

How's Barcelona?

Hey guy.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

What're you guys doing here?

It's from Clifford.

Brady!

Coming!

God bless!

I'll be able to visit on weekends.

I think I'm gonna go to the church.

I need some time to pray.

Don't be long!

I won't.

You can't move to Barcelona.

Brady, look me in the eyes and tell me

we don't belong together.

We can't.

I want you to have this.

I can't accept that.

Promise you'll wear it?

Stay!

I have a plane to catch.

Please don't be mad at me.

I'm not mad.

I'm just...

I thought your faith was stronger

than this.

Bye, Brady.

I love the Lord so much...

but I'm not sure I'm strong enough

to do what he wants me to.

You're making this into

a choice, Brady.

God never mentioned anything

about a choice.

Acts 2-21:

"Whoever calls on the name of

the Lord shall be saved."

John 3-17:

"For God did not send his Son out into

the world to condemn the world,

but to save the world through him."

Why are you so understanding?

The Lord above opened my eyes.

Run up and get your suitcase...

We need to hit the road.

I'm not going.

You're making the mistake

of your life.

I already made the mistake

of my life.

Maybe you should just leave.

Mom.

I don't wanna talk about this, Brady...

ever!

I need you!

I wish I could believe that.

What do you expect me

to do with this?

I just want you to love me.

Even if I can't change.

You're my son.

You will always be my son.

But there's something you have

to understand...

I can't change either.

I forgive you.

I won't say the pain was

over that day...

but ever since then,

I've gotten only closer to God.
