Barrio Boy (2022)
10/10
Beautiful and Thoughtful Piece
1 May 2024
Loved this beautiful film, which gave me a window into a corner of the NY LGBTQ+ experience I wasn't previously familiar with. Great storytelling, deeply authentic performances, and a clear love of New York made this film sing. In addition, I was deeply moved by the central storyline.

I think we are seeing trending LGBTQ+ stories currently that presume an ease with coming out. This has not been the experience of my community, and this film really spoke to a different connection to gay life in 2024.

We need more personal narratives brought to light in such thoughtful ways. Bravo! I've recommended it to multiple friends and family members.
