Paper Cut
by Andrew Rosendorf
A young gay American soldier, Kyle, returns from Afghanistan after being injured in an IED blast. Only a paper cut. Or that’s what he wants his friends, family, and a potential new love to believe. Paper Cut is a raw exploration of the physical and emotional toll of returning soldiers and how they navigate their way through another minefield – returning home.
This is a love story through the prism of a soldier. Someone who will die for their country even when their country tells them every day – in small and large ways – that they are less than. It’s an examination of what it means to be man. And even more so: what it means to be a gay man.
