Marco Calvani captures the beauty and pain of a contemporary gay man ( Marco Pigossi) in Provincetown who is at a crossroads in his life. Excellent performances and never heavy handed, High Tide sensitively navigates the main character's journey and takes the audience along for the ride as it unfolds. Wonderful cast all around and great supporting performances from Marisa Tomei and Bill Irwin. The film has such a lush look about it as Ptown is clearly another character here. We get a sense that down this garden path is just one story of so many in this fascinating mysterious coastal town at the end of the world. Inspired and truthful, I thoroughly enjoyed being taken on this ride and very much look forward to where Calvani will go from here.
Don't want to add too many spoilers but it rings true to me- a man from another country who wants to be free to live his life truthfully and find love after a painful break up. But he's bound by family ties and tradition and struggling to fully come out to those he loves back home. Expectation, disappointment and regret. The shame of not being free to be totally open even in our time is fascinating. As much as society has changed - the pain and difficulties of coming out fully to one's self and one's family is still present. I appreciate seeing this captured so effectively as I often have this argument in life when people talk about how being gay isn't an issue anymore and that it's accepted everywhere.
As someone who had their own difficulties coming out years ago, and also as an actor who has played parts of men struggling with sexuality and identity it really resonated with me so I wanted to write a review here.
I hope the film gets the attention it deserves. I'm sure it will have a nice life on demand. Kudos to the filmmakers and casting and the work of Marco Pigossi who navigates the central role with such love and compassion and sensitivity. He and the director have created something really special in his performances.

This movie is so well done not only for the story line that most foreigners can relate, the gay life's nuances, but also for the photography and scenes cuts.
What seamed to be an ordinary story, was transformed to be a moving sequence of events and little details of life that made it all combined a gorgeous film to watch.
From romance, to drama, to fun, to suspense, the mix of emotions was so captivating to watch and lovely to learn more about the story.
I could not recommend it enough. Me and my friends left the theater crying and wanting for the second one. I hope there is a continuation of the story.

I watch a ton of gay movies and I don't think I've been as moved by one since Andrew Haigh's Weekend. Actually, High Tide reminded me of Weekend in some ways. The intimacy, the reality of the feelings, the 3-dimensional way it resonated for me as being so fully expressive of the gay experience. I'm sure I'll think of more to say when the tears dry up. Thank you, Marco Calvani, for this love letter to Provincetown, the ups and downs and sideways of what it means to be a gay man, and that beautiful tide in Herring Cove.
This is a beautiful and emotional film that truly left an impression on me. Marco Pigossi's performance is outstanding; he brings his character to life in such a real and relatable way. I felt like I instantly connected with him, and his journey felt so personal and genuine.
The film covers so many different themes, from love and loss to personal growth, and it does so in a way that really tugs at your heartstrings. I found myself feeling a wide range of emotions, from happy to heartbroken, but it always felt meaningful.
The cinematography is breathtaking, with every shot feeling carefully crafted to add to the story. The natural scenery is stunning, and the way it's filmed really draws you into the world of the movie. The music also perfectly complements the mood, adding an extra layer of depth to the film.
After finishing it, I found myself thinking about the details I might have missed the first time. It's one of those films that sticks with you, and I'm definitely planning to revisit it to take in all the little touches I didn't notice before.
In short, I loved it. It is a beautiful, emotional, and thought-provoking film. Thank you.

This one really is a masterful film! The beautiful mix of pain, grief, love and hope reminds me of films like Moonlight, God's Own Country, Past Lives and Manchester By The Sea. I saw it in Boston and I had the opportunity of thanking the filmmakers in person for creating this gift. The love making scenes are some of the best I've seen in movies. And the cast is incredible... such a beautiful work of art. I hope everyone gets to see this once it gets to streaming. It's a poem, it's a love song, it's everything one can wish for. I've never been to Provincetown but now I'm dying to go! Congrats to everyone involved!
