Big Boys is a coming-of-age story about the thrilling turning point in a young queer person’s life... before they come out to the world... when they come out to themselves. Jamie is a chubby, gay fourteen-year-old confused about his sexuality and uncomfortable in his own body. But all that changes when his cousin brings her new boyfriend, Dan, on a family camping trip. Dan is a beefy, charming “bear” of a man who ignites feelings in Jamie that he had previously repressed, and proves to him that big guys can be sexy, too. Hilarious and heartwarming, Big Boys is the type of coming-of-age film we need more of in the world.
