Club Kid

Washed-up party promoter Peter’s queer nightlife is turned upside down when the son he never knew he had suddenly shows up at his door. Thrust into fatherhood overnight, he must balance drug-fuelled nights out with responsible breakfasts.

With remarkable ease and razor-sharp precision, this authentic debut shifts between comedy and emotional weight. Mental health, queer culture and fatherhood coexist in a fast-paced and refreshingly candid glimpse into New York’s club scene – filled with real parties and real people. Writer-director-actor Jordan Firstman picks up the torch from American queer cinema pioneers such as Harvey Fierstein and carries it proudly.
