Close to You

Sam has lived in Toronto for four years and hasn't been back to his hometown of Coubourg since his transition. He is now travelling there for his father's birthday. He is dreading the journey because the separation didn't go well back then and because he doesn't feel like making stupid comments and hurting himself again. On the train home, he meets Katherine, an old friend from high school who is herself struggling with ghosts from the past - and still has deep feelings for Sam.

In Dominic Savage's sensitive drama CLOSE TO YOU, Elliot Page finally returns to the big screen after three years! Page, who last year gave a moving account of the long road to his true self in his successful autobiography ‘Pageboy’, shines in the very personal story of a trans man who returns home, has to stand up to prejudice and reclassify old feelings.
