Synopsis:
Charlie is in desperate need of a story. He is in the final stages
of AIDS-related illnesses and believes if people keep telling him
stories, he'll stay alive. The Night Nurse won't help him. She's
too exhausted. Rose, his devoted friend doesn't understand his
need. Only Jo-Jo, Charlie's on-again-off-again pal brings him the
tale he needs. She encourages him to go on a Hawaiian cruise with
her and clashes with Rose's desire to keep him in bed. The two
women spar over Charlie, both claiming to know what's best for him.
The ultimate victor is what serves love best.
