Saugatuck Cures is a family comedy set in picturesque Saugatuck, Michigan. There we meet Maggie Callaghan (Judith Chapman), a widowed bed-and-breakfast owner, who's secretly dealing with a second round of cancer. Maggie's well-meaning, meddlesome friends let the truth slip when her rivaling children visit for Thanksgiving. Maggie's openly gay son, Drew (Max Adler), and affluent, religious daughter, Penelope, have yet another falling out over their mother's inability to pay for a new, experimental treatment.
Determined, but with no idea how to raise the money his mother needs, Drew follows the harebrained advice of his loyal, screwball best friend Brett (Danny Mooney). The two embark on a road trip, traveling from town to town and church to church posing as ex-gay ministers "curing" homosexuals of their "affliction" and dodging trouble along the way. Will this duo's hilariously misguided plan be able to save Maggie? DVD Special features will include behind the scenes footage, a teaser trailer, photo gallery, and the short film The Apple Tree.
