One of the most talked about and critically acclaimed LGBT films of the 2017 Sundance Film Festival, was BEACH RATS  which is a gritty, dark and dreamy story about the sexual awakening of a Brooklyn teenager. It centers on Frankie (stunning Brit newcomer Harris Dickinson), an aimless youth on the outer edges of Brooklyn, struggling to escape his bleak home life and navigating questions of self-identity. Frankie spends his summer balancing his time between his delinquent friends, a potential new girlfriend, and older men he meets online. As Frankie’s competing desires begin to consume him, his decisions leave him hurtling towards irreparable consequences.

The movie’s director Eliza Hittman was the winner of the Directing Award for U.S Dramatic Features at this year’s Sundance Film Festival.

Beach Rats was acquired Neon a brand new film distributor who hope to have the movie on our screens later on in 2017, meanwhile they have just released this first trailer teaser.
