Jitters

Life is happening right here, right now.

Directed by Baldvin Z

Produced by Kvikmyndafélag Íslands

A vibrant coming-of-age romance centered on a young man's self-discovery and first love, balancing the euphoria of new attraction with the friction of family scrutiny and social navigation.

An unexpected first kiss causes Gabriel to feel the electrifying "jitters" of love and lust with the free-spirited Marcus; a perfect way to end a Summer studying abroad. Realizing he is gay, Gabriel returns home and is immediately scrutinized by his family and friends who notice he’s different. But as the school year launches with Gabriel distracted with parties and his friends’ own dramas, Marcus returns, reigniting the hot, thrilling emotions of one’s first crush. Jitters fires head-first into the topsy-turvy world of first love with an attractive cast and pulsating soundtrack, making it a smartly refreshing journey into the queer, teen experience.
