The Dream Man is a successful gay phone sex host who, with his vivid powers of imaginative impersonation, tempts and delights his ardent callers. In his fantasy role, he flips between the young innocent through to the S & M master but this performance belies a life that is lonely, loveless, and filled with emotional confusion.

The movie, adapted from Robert Chesley's homoerotic play of the same title, revolves around two men who started out as phone sex buddies who grew on each other through time. The fragility of this kind of relationship is put to fore when Bert (Tom Wagner) got sick and couldn't return his calls. J.R. was left with nothing to hold on to but blank hope. No warning. No goodbye. Bert is gone.
