Let the Manhunt begin! This feature expands the role of Luke from Casper Andreas' first film, SLUTTY SUMMER, but stands alone as a story that demonstrates that slut doesn't mean sleazy and that the eternal bachelor can someday find his beloved. This film recreates the world of gay Manhattan, transporting the audience into the party and pain on screen all the while showing that love doesn't always have to be "a four letter word". From the director of MORMOR’S VISIT.

Nina Shah's return to her native Scotland is not a joyous homecoming. Gone for three years after running out on her wedding, she returns to Glasgow for her dad's funeral and is forced to face all the memories and people she left behind, including best friend Bobbi, an aspiring Bollywood Drag Queen. Nina is taken aback when she discovers that half of the family's Indian restaurant was lost due to old gambling debts, and when she discovers that the new co-owner is a family friend, Lisa, things get more complicated. Soon the aroma in the kitchen is full of the scents of ginger, coconut, coriander and cumin, but Nina's heart and mind are flled with thoughts of Lisa. Afraid to let her family know where her heart really lies, it's the discovery that she is not the only Shah with a secret that helps her understand that life is like the rule for making a great curry.
