Written by and starring comedian Joel Kim Booster (who will also debut his Netflix stand-up special Joel Kim Booster: Psychosexual later this month), Fire Island chronicles a close-knit group of queer friends – including SNL comedian Bowen Yang (also a guest on Dua Lipa: At Your Service), his Las Culturistas co-host Matt Rogers, and comedy legend Margaret Cho – as they holiday together in New York’s premier gay enclave. Bursting with warmth and queer joy, the film cherishes the little moments, such as inside jokes funny only to the closest of chosen families. Though there’s a core plot, the movie unfolds best in these quieter pockets, returning time and again to the value of finding your tribe.
Brennan Carley is US Editor and Culture Director of Service95
