BLUE FILM Trailer: One of the Most Daring, Controversial Films of the Year Arrives in May
One indie drama that made waves following its premieres at the 2025 Edinburgh International Film Festival and NewFest was writer-director Elliot Tuttle’s Blue Film. While screening to much acclaim, Tuttle’s feature debut has also garnered controversy over its provocative and sensitive subject matter. It stars breakout star Kieron Moore as a camboy who agrees to meet an anonymous client (veteran actor Reed Birney), only to discover the connection he has to his past. Birney and former IndieWire chief critic Eric Kohn serve as executive producers, while Tuttle’s mentor Mark Duplass is credited as consulting producer. Hammer To Nail favorite Zach Clark (director of Little Sister and White Reindeer) also edited the feature himself. Obscured Releasing will open the film in NYC’s IFC Center on May 8 and LA’s Laemmle Theatres on May 15.
As the official synopsis reads:
“When a fetish camboy (Kieron Moore) visits a client in exchange for $50,000, he discovers a masked man (Reed Birney) with a camera and a series of increasingly probing questions. But when the man reveals a disturbing connection to Aaron’s past, the two drop their personas and gradually reveal their true desires in a seductive thriller being called ‘one of the most daring American films of recent vintage.’”
