Head to the beach with ‘High Tide,’ one of the year’s most acclaimed gay films

Marco Pigossi delivers a brilliantly nuanced performance in High Tide as Lourenço, a Brazilian immigrant whose visa is nearing its expiration.

Heartbroken and adrift after his American boyfriend unexpectedly leaves him, Lourenco finds himself alone in Provincetown. Enveloped by the beauty and magic of the seaside community, he grows distressed by the day as his once hopeful future has dimmed into an emotional and physical state of limbo.

When he meets Maurice (James Bland), a kind, vacationing nurse, they form an unexpected connection. Together, they begin to find acceptance with each other while struggling to reconcile their uncertain futures.

For his feature directorial debut, world-renowned playwright Marco Calvani weaves a colorful tapestry of queer lives intersecting in one of North America’s most iconic gay destinations. Bill Irwin and Marisa Tomei co-star in this acclaimed romantic gay drama.
