CLUB KID

Presentation of Breakthrough Filmmaker Award to writer/director/actor Jordan Firstman and Q&A with Firstman and actor Colleen Camp following the screening.

From writer-actor-director Jordan Firstman, making his feature directorial debut, comes an irresistible crowd-pleaser brimming with equal parts humor and heart about a 30-something nightlife promoter whose life changes in a flash when he meets the 10-year-old son he never knew he had. Firstman (I LOVE L.A.) stars as Peter, a professional clubgoer hungover from a decade of hard-partying and blurry New York City nights out with his friends, including business partner Sophie (Cara Delevingne) and his queer club-kid entourage. When a British woman arrives at his downtown apartment with 10-year-old Arlo in tow, insisting he's his son, Peter's life changes in an instant. Clearly unprepared for parenting, but determined to support the child, Peter turns to handsome social worker Oscar (Diego Calva), who helps father and son navigate the complex bureaucracy of Manhattan child-rearing, until the harsh realities of adult life intercede, forcing Peter to reckon with his life choices, and responsibilities.
