The relationship between two gay men and their friends is chronicled from the pre-AIDS era in 1977 through the epidemic in the late 1980s, all connected by a green plaid shirt they found at a yard sale.
Green Plaid Shirt is a modest but sincere gay relationship drama that follows love through the changing social landscape of the 1970s and 1980s. Richard Natale works on a small scale, yet the film’s affection for its characters and attention to the ordinary pressures of long-term relationships make it quietly affecting.
