Spa Night is a coming of age tale that is a really refreshing look at a young Korean/American man with a foot in two different cultures in which he doesn’t feel he fits, which in a way mirrors his parents own struggle to find their American identities. On top of that however, David has to come to terms with his own sexuality, which looks like it is going to take a great deal longer to resolve. Written & Directed by newbie filmmaker Andrew Ahn, it was one of the very best LGBT movies to emerge from Sundance this year.
