Dino Hart

Set in days after the passage of a “Don’t Say Gay” bill, the film explores being a queer kid in 2023 small-town America, the crumbling Americana of small-town life, & the fine line between imagination and reality.

 

Joel plays the protagonist’s internalized version of their father. Through a series of fantasized interactions with this idealized father, Dino attempts to reconcile their emergent understanding of their sexuality and place in the world.
