“Connor is a nineteen year-old introvert, obsessed with comic books and superheroes. He’s at his happiest when he’s alone with his own thoughts. Except... for the next three days, he’s not. In a world where criminals store their consciousnesses in others to evade capture, Connor now finds himself with an eccentric, charismatic and quite possibly homicidal newcomer in his head, and a fight for control begins. The Fish Cage is a thrilling, funny and intense look into how a family’s loyalties shift when control starts to slip away. Because when you share a mind with someone, nothing stays hidden for long…”

“Casper, Desean, and Krystal are queer and trans youth of colour who find themselves homeless after coming out to their families, and find community and a chosen family around New York City’s Christopher Street Pier. An intimate and moving portrait of the realities of these LGBTQ+ youth, the film sheds light on the harassment and police profiling they are confronted with on a daily basis.”
From: Pier Kids
