Closet Monster

LB2 Sep 17 3:45 pm | In brief: An East Coast teenager and aspiring special-effects makeup artist (Connor Jessup, Blackbird) struggles with both his sexuality and his fear of his macho father, in this imaginative twist on the coming-of-age tale from first-time feature director Stephen Dunn.

Ramblings: Absolutely stunning first feature. Coming of age movie with a difference. Does not beat you over the head. Great music. Superb acting. Exceptional story.
