From the creative mind of Terracino comes this wildly entertaining NYC tale of wide-eyed Elliot, a young gay man seen both as an inquisitive 10-year-old boy and an idealistic 21-year-old searching for love in all the wrong places.
Elliot is handsome and charismatic, but unlucky in love. He can t seem to hold down a relationship for more than a few weeks but things look promising with Kiko, a sexy young go-go dancer who seems smitten with Elliot.
As Elliot’s heart is repeatedly broken in the present, the film flashes back to situations in the past that fuels his current need for love as he struggles through adolescence with his abused mother.
Elliot Loves bounds with a consistent optimism and features captivatingly nuanced performances throughout. Charming, fresh and engrossing – a classic gay feature in the making.
