CONTENT WARNING:

Eight characters meet during New Year ’s Eve , inexorably crossing their lives. Four men and four women, gay , lesbian and bisexual , dealing with everyday life, sentimental and working problems, jealousy and betrayals. “Good As You”, acrostic of the word ” gay ”, was the slogan used by the homosexual movement in the sixties of the twentieth century , during the protest marches.

This film is presented in Italian with English subtitles.

Eight characters (four men and four women), are destined to cross paths on New Year's Eve in Rome. With alcohol and a romantic atmosphere playing their part, assisted by a sudden black out during the toast, the eight friends will find themselves caught up in unexpected confessions, revealed secrets and impulsive decisions that will reignite overwhelming (as much as unlikely) passions. Dawn will thus salute four couples rapturously passionate and... ready to explode like a pressure cooker, with betrayals and setbacks already looming on the horizon.

17 year old Mike has always been kind of a outcast, never quite on time, never knowing quite the right thing to say. He’s doing his best just to survive high school. But all that changes when a new kid arrives in his class, William. And when the two of them are immediately thrust together to complete an English class assignment, Mike sees his chance to become closer to the quiet, enigmatic Will. As the two spend more time together under the auspices of making a ‘monster movie’ version of Romeo & Juliet, they begin to realise that their feelings towards one another may be more powerful than they’d anticipated. But like the two main characters in the greatest love story ever told, Mike and Will seem pre‐destined to be kept apart, by their respective dysfunctional families, by their classmates, and by their own sexual confusion. Can their love overcome all obstacles? Or, like the Shakespearian monsters that inhabit their school project, are they fated to spend their existence haunted and alone? A coming‐out and coming‐of‐age drama firmly set in the 1990’s, MONSTER PIES is a snapshot in time, a moving teen romance unafraid to tackle the contradictions and complexities of the male adolescent heart and mind. NORTH AMERICAN PREMIERE

Mike has felt alienated and alone for as long as he can remember, until a new boy arrives at his school - awakening feelings and a world of possibilities he’d never before dared to dream of.
