ENZO EFSERYAN(FREDDIE MERCURY) IS A PROMISING MOVIE ACTOR WHO IS AT A CROSSROADS IN LIFE WITH HIS GIRLFRIEND PAULINE AMOS (MARY AUSTIN). APPARENTLY THE END OF IT ALL, IT WILL BE JUST THE BEGINNING OF A NEW LIFE FOR THE ACTOR.
MY PARTICULAR HOMAGE TO...
The concept of one party in which men dressed up like women and vice versa, was Tarek's idea and Enzo joined it willingly. He loved wearing drag, it felt the funnier thing in the world but Tarek insisted he wouldn't wear any drag. Enzo had to yield after fighting like kids.
Enzo hired Miltons club in the middle of Munich night gay life. They decorated it in yellow and black, even they covered all the couches in those colours and filled with yellow and black roses.
That day Tarek arrived at the airport and went to Enzo's home at noon to find everything boiling up. The night before a bunch of friends had arrived and he lodged them in the most luxury hotel in Munich and they had arrived to wish him a happy birthday.
Tarek peeked out his head almost shyly at the living room. That was Sodom and Gomorrah. Stoles, shiny sequin dresses, makeup, hair dryers on, screams and hysterical laughter. People were trying on their costumes and the atmosphere was joyful, carefree and very noisy.

Tarek left his tiny suitcase in a corner and waved hello timidly. They were putting Enzo some fake eyelashes and seeing his boyfriend went up to him jumping.
- Happy birthday -he whispered just before he covered his mouth with a ravenous kiss.
- Thanks, my dear.
- It's too early to start with the costumes, isn't it?
- I wanted to make a dress rehearsal but everybody counted in. You know, they are some real hystericals.
- Come with me, I want to give you something.
Tarek held tightly his arm dragging him out of that lunatic asylum. They went to his bedroom and closed the door. Then Tarek saw the orgy of gifts from all his friends, all displayed there. Lavish gifts. Beautiful victorian embroidered tablecloths, a china engraved tureen gold, even some magnificent green satin curtains. Tarek stood there watching everything awkward and his heart sank. He couldn't compete with that overwhelming luxury. He would have to save one year long to buy something like that.
In comparison his gift was an anecdote. He had spinning his head and he came up with the idea of a drawing of the two with their cat Greta framed. When Enzo unwrapped it as Tarek bit his lips, nervous, let out a joyful scream.
- Oh! My love. Can you drawing too?
- No, I put a painter friend on that one.
- It's really good. It seems some victorian picture of 19th century. We should pay her an exhibition.
- Do you like it? I know it cannot compare to nothing around me but...
- Exactly, nothing can compare to it because it's the best gift I've been given to me today -he said pulling him into a big hug and kissing him like crazy.
Then he started to run everywhere show them his present.
- Look what my man has given me. Isn't it a cuteness?
