Eliza Hittman’s Beach Rats is a study on the mind and body of a closeted Brooklyn teenager Frankie, with an enigmatic breakthrough performance from lead Harris Dickinson. Frankie cruises for sex with older men on webcam chat rooms, gets high with his shirtless friends, and starts a relationship with a sexually charged young woman. All of these serve as some kind of escape from Frankie’s separate selves.
