Frankie (Harris Dickinson) is a teenage boy, living on the streets of Brooklyn, and struggling to escape the confines of his working class home life. Spending his evenings at Coney Island with his friends and getting into trouble, he meets a potential new girlfriend, one who demands his respect. But Frankie has a secret, one that will ultimately force him to question his entire identity forever. Eliza Hittman follows up on her tremendous debut IT FELT LIKE LOVE with a fresh perspective on the roles we play.
