In the 1950s, a few photographers specialized in muscular young men in what were supposedly muscle men's magazines. One of those photographers, Bob Mizer (Daniel MacIvor), went on to produce 40-years worth of sexually explicit film. Both the magazines and films were directed at the homosexual community. This drama reflects Mizer's lifestyle through the fictional story of a popular Mizer model, Neil O'Hara (Joshua Peace), and culminates with the charge against Mizer of running a male prostitution ring.
