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.
The New Year is more than just a date change on the calendar. It often marks a turning point where the weight of past experiences is felt or the uncertainty of the future is faced. This season, Pera Film highlights films that delve into themes of hope, regret, nostalgia, and new beginnings.
