Synopsis
Phoenix is the story of a suspenseful and mysterious journey of two jilted lovers following the trail of their mutual betrayer. Ken Sparks (played by Gaetano Jones) has had some urgent business matter to attend in Phoenix, Arizona after a land deal has gone sour. In the process, he is also leaving behind his lover boy friend Dylan (Chad Edward Bartley) making promises for Dylan's birthday. Despite Dylan having delusions that Ken might me the one for him, Ken on the other hand doesn't want Dylan to join in with him in Phoenix and makes empty promises to keep Dylan in
Betrayed by false promises, Dylan asks about him and discovers not only that Ken has altogether disappeared from the scene, but that he has had a long-term and ongoing relationship with his "husband" Demetrius Stone (Jeff Castle). Now Ken has also dumped Demetrius as well and just disappeared.
Seeing the joint predicament both lovers are in because of Ken's betrayal of them both, Dylan and Demetrius feel an affinity building up between them and eventually fall in love together. The film is sub-titled as "Every broken heart is a chance for a new beginning..." or as Dylan says to Demetrius: "may be this is destiny, and maybe this whole thing with Ken was just to bring us together" although they both obviously live in the spell of their common lover. And as they admit, "this is not easily done" and is "an awful lot of trouble to go through" and realizing this new love "cannot replace him [Ken]".
