The feature-film debut from art director Jonah Markowitz (Quinceanera) pivots on the tension between responsibility to family and responsibility to self. Recent high-school graduate Zach (Trevor Wright) has one summer to reconcile the competing halves of his life. The aspiring Picasso lives in blue-collar San Pedro with his irresponsible sister, Jeanne (Tina Holmes, Half Nelson), her five-year-old son, Cody (Jackson Wurth), and their rarely-seen father. Zach gave up his art school dreams to toil in a diner and help look after his much-loved nephew. With his best friend, Gabe (Ross Thomas), away at college, Zach draws, surfs, and skateboards by his lonesome. When Gabe's novelist brother, Shaun (Brad Rowe, Billy's Hollywood Screen Kiss), returns to his Orange County home to recover from a broken heart, he and Zach alternate between riding the waves and encouraging each other to pursue their aspirations. Shaun is gay, while Zach appears to be straight, but a casual kiss between the two soon leads to a secret relationship. Before the former returns to Los Angeles, the latter has to decide who he is--gay, straight, artist, cook, uncle, or father--and what he's going to do about it. Except for the location shooting, this low-budget indie plays like an extended episode of The O.C. what with all the "bro"s and "dude"s and love scenes tame enough for network TV. Nonetheless, Markowitz's heart is in the right place, and Shelter may provide some real-life Zachs with the courage they need to follow their passions. --Kathleen C. Fennessy
Product Description
Forced to give up his dreams of art school, Zach spends his days working a dead end job and helping his needy sister care for her son. In his free time he surfs, draws and hangs out with his best friend, Gabe, who lives on the wealthy side of town. When Gabe's older brother, Shaun, returns home, he is drawn to Zach's selflessness and talent. Zach falls in love with Shaun while struggling to reconcile his own desires with the needs of his family.

 Forgetable, at least. August 25, 2008

A movie to watch on a boring Sunday afternoon and only if you have absolutely nothing else to do. Fortunately it is not very long, quite predictable and also easy to forget. If you'r busy, movie lover or a thinker in anyway, just stay away.
My new favorite "gay" film August 17, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I loved this film...it was sweet and sexy... but not so much that I couldn't watch it with my own gay son! The storyline with the sister and her child was sad because there are so many kids who have parents that just want to pawn them off so they can go play...but the ending had me happy and teary-eyed! If you are looking for hot sex or a stereotypical "gay" film with clubs and drugs...this is not the film for you. It is a satisfying love story/family drama that leaves you wanting more!
Perfection August 14, 2008
If your one like me who loves to see a good heart-warming romantic story this movie is for you. It is just an oustanding movie it warms my heart everytime I watch it. Now its not heavy on the sex, it is just light and simple. It is all about the discovery of love in a place that most of us are afraid to explore. Simply put, it is perfection It is a must buy.
An amazing little film August 13, 2008
The premise of this movie is simple, Zach is a struggling artist (and part-time surfer), who wants nothing more than to go to art school, but in fact has to take care of his nephew because his sister is irresponsible. When a surprise romance enters the picture (Shaun, his best friend's older brother), then Zach is finally forced to either follow his dreams or stay in his dead-end life.
This film has it all: solid acting, lush local of the California beaches, a great soundtrack and well-written script. It has now replaced "Latter Days" as my all-time favorite independent film.
So, if you love romance, surfing, and amazing acting/filmmaking, then buy this movie.

oh my god. My friend and I were on youtube and just saw a part of this movie and immediately wanted to buy it. I'm really glad we did, because its one of the best movies i've seen so far. No, theres no really hardcore sex scene in it. Its just really sweet and touching. Its one of those movies that make you go 'awwww'. I'd recommend this to ANYONE!
