Fruit fly

In this tale of two lonely people from across time who share the same pain and Alma Mater, Robby --a lost queer freshman at Harvard-- creates an intrinsic bond with his roommate of sorts, Dorothy Dean--the oft-forgotten Black 1960’s socialite who was a member of Andy Warhol’s "Factory"-- in an effort to learn from her experience as a student at Radcliffe/Harvard in the 1950's. As Dorothy and Robby find common ground and form a painful yet important bond, Robby starts to blossom in new friendships and romances outside of his dorm room, only to discover that Dorothy's methods of survival may destroy him before they save him.
