#JordanFirstman is making waves with #ClubKid, his gloriously gay feature directorial debut that took Cannes by storm, inspired a heated bidding war and landed a $17 million global rights deal with A24. The movie follows a New York City nightlife promoter whose hard-partying lifestyle is disrupted when a 10-year-old boy shows up at his door claiming to be his son. Rooted in modern queer life, the film explores universal themes of growth, love and belatedly becoming an adult. “It’s been amazing to see the kinds of people that relate to this film, but it really is a movie about growth,” Firstman tells Variety. “In Telluride, I watched a 75-year-old conservative man leave the theater in tears. Then we took it to the New York Film Festival, which I was very nervous to do, and showed it to the 35-year-olds who do drugs.” With “Club Kid” instantly solidifying Firstman as a force to be reckoned with, the filmmaker is helping usher in a new wave of queer storytelling — one that is unapologetically gay while resonating with audiences far beyond the LGBTQ+ community.
