ALEX IN WONDERLAND Michel Lacroix
Alex Sumner, 26, is the closeted gay son of an obscenely wealthy New Orleans oil tycoon. At the insistence of his father, Alex has become engaged to Camilla, the pushy and totally self-absorbed daughter of another oil man. Appalled at the looming prospect of a hollow, arranged marriage, Alex hightails it for Key West. On the way, he meets Cord. Big, strong, and on the skids, Cord is an out-of-work personal trainer about to humble himself begging his homophobic dad for a job. Cord and Alex fall for each other, but Alex’s father has posted a huge reward for his return, and amateur bounty hunters are on his trail.
