Elliot Page as Sam in Close to You.
The Big Picture Elliot Page is making a bold move in the trailer for Close to You. The drama, which was penned by Page and the movie’s director, Dominic Savage, follows a young trans man as he makes his way back to his hometown for the first time in four years to celebrate his father’s birthday.
Traveling by bus, Page’s Sam makes the trek back from Toronto to visit his family for the first time since his transition. Apprehensive about the outcome and the people who will meet him on the other side of the door, Sam takes a deep breath and goes for it.
Close to You is the latest feature to come from Savage, who has a true knack and passion for portraying humanity at its core. In the past, the BAFTA award-winning filmmaker has helmed such titles as The Escape, Dive, and Freefall, and on the small screen, most recently brought audiences the heartfelt anthology series, I Am… as well as other productions including The Secrets and True Love.
‘Close to You’s Festival Success After celebrating its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2023, Close to You has gone on to screen at several other events, including the 2024 BFI Flare and the Calgary International Film Festival, where Page took home the award for Special Jury Citation for Performance, International Narrative Feature Competition. Later this year, the production will roll at New York’s LGBTQ+ centered festival, NewFest.
