Set in 1990s Chicago, Go Fish stands out as a 16mm guerrilla-style film made on a very limited budget during the height of the New Queer Cinema movement. Directed by Rose Troche and co-written with lead actor Guinevere Turner, the film tells a story about the search for love. Max, a college student stuck in a romantic rut, spends her days discussing relationships and sexuality with her roommate Kia—until she meets Ely. A connection begins to grow between them, but Ely’s long-distance relationship complicates things.

Set against the backdrop of the AIDS crisis, Go Fish gives voice to marginalized youth, offering love and solidarity as a response to social exclusion.
