Julio GarciaMale21-27 y.o.All ethnicities

Julio is a very shy and self-conscious queer boy. After years of living under his mother’s protection from his abusive father in the past, she is his only comfort. When she disowned him, being an only child, Julio felt remorse and disgusted by himself. The only other comfort he has had was when he discovered Drag. In his drag persona, "July Joy," Julio feels more comfortable in his skin, like putting up a barrier that protects him; he is more outgoing and can feel himself.

She finds the courage to go to where her son performed as a drag queen, trying to find a connection with him and what he loved to do.
