Close To You

Directed by Dominic Savage

Sam hasn’t been home since his transition – and, after four years in Toronto, he takes a long-dreaded trip back to his hometown for his father’s birthday. 

On the train there, he runs into Katherine, a friend from high school who is dealing with her own complicated situation, and feelings from their unresolved past begin to bubble to the surface. 

Elliot Page makes contributions both in front of and behind the camera to this powerful, emotionally observant drama about coming home as yourself, only for everyone to treat you like a completely different person. 

“A soul-baring performance from page.”
