Unfortunately, John mistakes this growing intimacy for love, and a disastrous date to his junior prom leaves that friendship in ruins. While at first their friendship is based on zines, dysfuntional families, and dreams of escape, soon both John and Marisol begin to shed their protective shells. It’s no wonder John writes articles like ‘Interview with the Stepfather’ and ‘Memoirs from Hell.’ The only release he finds is in homemade zines like the amazing Escape Velocity by Marisol, a self proclaimed ‘Puerto Rican Cuban Yankee Lesbian.’ Haning around the Boston Tower Records for the new issue of Escape Velocity, John meets Marisol and a Hard Love is born. Since his parents’ divorce, John’s mother hasn’t touched him, her new fianc wants them to move away, and his father would rather be anywhere than at Friday night dinner with his son.
