Sundance Award-Winner BEACH RATS Gets a Teaser Trailer

Eliza Hittman won the award for Best Director – U.S. Features at this year’s Sundance Film Festival for Beach Rats, starring newcomer Harris Dickinson as an aimless Brooklyn youth. The teaser is impressionistic in nature, artistically depicting shirtless selfies.

New distribution company Neon Picked up the rights and Beach Rats will be released sometime this fall.

BEACH RATS centers on Frankie (Harris Dickinson), an aimless youth on the outer edges of Brooklyn, struggling to escape his bleak home life and navigating questions of self-identity. Frankie spends his summer balancing his time between his delinquent friends, a potential new girlfriend, and older men he meets online. As Frankie’s competing desires begin to consume him, his decisions leave him hurtling towards irreparable consequences.
