‘Club Kid,’ ‘Queen at Sea’ Earn Top Prizes at Philadelphia Film Festival
According to Variety, Lance Hammer’s ‘Queen at Sea’ earned the narrative jury prize, while Jordan Firstman’s ‘Club Kid’ took home the narrative audience award at the 35th Philadelphia Film Festival. This year’s edition of the festival marked a historic milestone, drawing the highest attendance in the event's history. In a recent interview with Variety, Firstman expressed his excitement that ‘Club Kid,’ despite its focus on the specific world of New York’s queer clubbing scene, resonated with a diverse range of moviegoers as an intimate family drama.
