Locusts Have No King

Two closeted gay couples get together for a dinner party. They work together. They live in the same building. They can’t stand each other. When one dreams of a life in the open, putting their shared secret at risk, it just might be the end of the world. They can’t allow this to happen. They won't allow this to happen. All hell breaks loose... literally.
