Coming this August from life and creative partners Colby Holt and Sam Probst is Ganymede, a campy Southern Gothic thriller. The film is a combination of religious horror and creature feature, all while examining what it means to grow up queer in a homophobic family.

Read the full synopsis below:

When a small-town wrestling star develops a crush on an openly gay classmate, he begins to be stalked by a grotesque creature that invades his thoughts, all the while struggling to live up to the standard set by his legacy-obsessed dad.
