High Tide

Directed by Marco Calvani2024USA101 mins

For his feature directorial debut, world-renowned playwright Marco Calvani places Brazilian star Marco Pigossi (Gen V) at the heart of High Tide, a sexy, moving tale of a gay immigrant in Provincetown making a living through the harsh gig economy following an unexpected break-up.

Also starring Oscar winner Marisa Tomei, Tangerine's Mya Taylor, and Bill Irwin (Rustin), High Tide finds the wayward Lourenço (Pigossi, in a magnetic performance) with a pair of much-needed prospects on the horizon as summer in Ptown begins to wind down: a flirtatious fling with handsome New Yorker Maurice (James Bland, writer/creator/star of the series Giants) and a meeting with an immigration lawyer (Bryan Batt, Mad Men). But shadows of both Lourenço and Maurice's romantic pasts and the harsh realities of being an undocumented immigrant in the United States hover over a gay man approaching the next chapter in his life. With its excellent ensemble cast and stunning visuals, High Tide isn’t just Lourenço’s story, as Calvani weaves a colorful tapestry of queer lives intersecting on the beaches of one of North America’s quintessential gay destinations.
