Crossing
by Ealasaid Haas • March 14, 2005 • Drama
Danny is a tough guy, the son of a leader in Vancouver’s Croation mafia. He makes a deathbed promise to his old man to take the family legit, but finds that is far more difficult than he expected. There’s a mole in his organization, and the big delivery he needs to make to make the family into an honest business keeps getting ruined. Worse, a chance encounter awakens in him the desire to dress up in women’s clothing. A wild infatuation with a hooker who is willing to indulge him turns sour and he winds up being blackmailed.
He is determined to keep his promise to his father and also save face, but that’s going to be a lot harder than he thinks. This edgy thriller/romance noir is a gender-bending head trip and not to be missed by anyone intrigued by the cross-genre concept.
