Come As You Are

Running time: 68 mins

Three young special-needs men go on a road trip to lose their virginity.

Director Geoffrey Enthoven (The Over the Hill Band, Cinequest 2010) returns to the festival in fine form with his brilliant new comedy, which deservedly won the Grand Prize of the Americas and the Audience Award at the Montreal World Film Festival.

Suburban friends Jozef, Philip and Lars still require considerable assistance from the parents whom they live with. But when they hear of a Spanish brothel that caters to people "like us," their families reluctantly agree to let the trio go on vacation. Unfortunately, their driver/caretaker ends up being a gruff, heavyset women who only speaks French, and the mishaps and confrontations only seems to escalate over the course of their journey.
