Excellent gay film that isn't about being gay

I saw this film years ago at the Los Angeles Gay and Lesbian Film Festival. Of all the films I saw that weekend, this was by far the best. It is also one of the best "gay themed" movies I have seen ever.

The film is not about a man coming our, or the angst of being gay. It is about a father and son. The son is openly gay, but that is not the center of the story. The main plot point is that the father is newly single after his wife leaves him. The son helps his father adjust to being alone, and both become closer in the process.

Just watching the intricacies of creating the drink "Pousse Cafe", a complex combination of layered liquors, displayed in bands of color. The drink is a metaphor for relationships and how delicate they are in their dynamics.
