"For its naturalistic yet spare and unforced dialogue, even in the most harrowing of situations the award for Best Screenwriting in a U.S. Narrative goes to Eliza Hittman for Beach Rats."
Through its excellent directing, evocative camerawork, subtle pacing and outstanding lead acting performance, Beach Rats delivers an immersive portrayal of a teenager's chaotic explorations into sex, drugs, masculinity and independence.
