Which call do you answer? The one you feel from God or the one you feel about your authentic self? This is the dilemma at hand for Brother Vito (played by writer/director Anthony J. Caruso) struggling with a decision as he must decide between becoming a Brother or allowing himself to declare his love for Gabe (Derek Babb). Shot entirely in Austin and with a local cast and crew, Brotherly Love is a fresh take on the traditional gay love story, with The Golden Girls also playing an important role in this romantic dramedy.

"Beautiful and heartfelt, Anthony J. Caruso's warm and romantic comedy-drama hits all the right notes", said Richard Ross, Co-President of Breaking Glass. "Authentic and intimate dialog highlight this study of a Brother in the Catholic Church who struggles with his vow of chastity when he meets and falls in love with a charming young man."
