Closet Monster

Connor Jessup (Falling Skies) stars in this coming-of-age adventure as Oscar Madly, a creative and driven teenager who hovers on the brink of adulthood. Affected by his dysfunctional parents, unsure of his sexuality, and haunted by visions of a tragic incident during his childhood, Oscar dreams of escaping the town he feels is suffocating him. With the help of his talking pet hamster, Buffy, voiced by Isabella Rossellini (Blue Velvet), he embarks on a journey of self-discovery. When he falls for the new boy at work, the mysterious and elusive Wilder (Aliocha Schneider), Oscar's world turns on its head. Catapulting into a charged world of fantasia and duress, only his imagination and the prospect of love can ultimately bring him closer to confronting his inner monster. (Peccadillo Pictures)
