I’ll Take Everything You Have is a vivid portrayal of queer coming of age in Depression-era Chicago, and a timeless story of trying to make your future bright when the rest of the world is dead set on keeping it hidden in the dark. But before he can figure out where to go, he has to decide who he wants to be. When danger closes in-from gangsters, the police, and people he thought were friends-Joe needs to pack up and get lost. Joe’s exposure to the surface of criminal Chicago pulls him into something darker than he could have imagined. While running his con, Joe finds himself splitting time between Eddie, a handsome flirt on a delivery truck, and Raymond, a carefree rich kid who shows Joe the eye-opening queer life around every corner of the big city.
