Plot

In the heart of New York, Jane, a nightclub singer yearning for her next break, crosses paths with Robin, an eccentric real estate agent with an unorthodox request - a companion for her long journey to Los Angeles. Uncertain yet intrigued, Jane answers the call, unknowingly setting the stage for a unique road trip that will change their lives forever. On their way to the City of Angels, they make an unexpected detour in Pittsburgh, where they pick up Holly, a woman desperately fleeing a dangerous past riddled with violence and illicit dealings. As miles stretch out before them, a bond begins to form - an unlikely sisterhood built on understanding, respect, and compassion. The trio, however, is far from ordinary. Jane grapples with her identity as a lesbian, Robin endures her silent battle with AIDS, and Holly is on a relentless quest for fleeting solace in one-night stands and the elusive search for a good man. From New York's vibrant nightlife to Pittsburgh's gritty streets and the vast, untamed landscapes of Tucson, these three disparate women find solace in their shared journey. Amidst the backdrop of their personal struggles, they find an unexpected camaraderie, a testament to friendship's transformative power. "Boys on the Side" paints an evocative tableau of the human spirit's resilience, the beauty of unexpected friendships, and the freedom found on the open road.
