GOLDEN DELICIOUS
Directed by Jason Karman; 2022; Canada; 120 min.
Everyone wants something from high school senior Jake: his father is pushing him to try out for the basketball team, and his girlfriend wants to take their relationship to the next level. When Aleks, a handsome, basketball-loving, shamelessly-out gay kid, moves in across the street, Jake’s world turns upside down, sending him headfirst into the throes of jock-dom. With a sensitive hand, director Jason Karman explores the innocence and trepidations of falling in love for the first time. Karman gives us a queer love story with a broad focus on family, legacy, and authenticity. Set in the modern digital age, Jake and his friends are finding themselves through social media, forging real connections, and figuring out who to take to the prom. In a time where queer coming-of-age films are finally part of the conversation, GOLDEN DELICIOUS feels like something extra special.
