groupers

Global Digital Releasing will be screening the new dark comedy Groupers in theaters across the US beginning later this month. The movie stars Peter Mayer-Klepchick, Cameron Duckett, Nicole Dambro and Jesse Pudles, and was written and directed by Anderson Cowan. Brad and Dylan are your two typical testosterone-fueled American jocks (read: jerks). They repeatedly make life miserable for Orin, an openly gay student…and that doesn’t sit well with Meg, Orin’s sister, who hatches a plan. Pretending to come on to them at a local bar that night, she knocks them out and takes them to an abandoned pool in the middle of nowhere. When Brad and Dylan wake up, Meg introduces herself as a grad student and announces they’re about to take part in her sadistic experiment — part of her thesis exploring the controversial question of whether homosexuality is a choice. Meg stands on one side, the jocks on the other…is it time for some conversion therapy? “This is an important film,” says Global Digital Releasing President Joe Dain.
