Set in the fall of 1997, this poignant and compelling story follows the lives of Brent and Cole, two gay men navigating their twelve-year relationship in and around Washington, D.C. Against the backdrop of a society still grappling with the aftermath of the HIV/AIDS crisis and the pervasive homophobia of the time, Brent and Cole's love and commitment face extraordinary challenges.

Brent, the older of the two and the sole financial provider, supports Cole, who battles a debilitating bone disease. Despite the absence of legal same-sex marriage, their relationship is built on a foundation of trust, love, and unwavering commitment. However, like many couples, they encounter rough patches that test their bond to its limits.

As they confront the harsh realities of a relationship on the brink, Brent and Cole must navigate the emotional turmoil of love lost, betrayal, and the quest to understand what went wrong. "Breaking Up in the 90s" offers a universal exploration of the complexities of love, the pain of breaking up, and the strength required to move forward.

Join Brent and Cole on their journey through the highs and lows of love, as they face their past and struggle to find a way forward in a world that is slowly beginning to accept them.
