BEACH LOGS KILL is a surrealist daydream-slash-nightmare set in the heightened reality of a teen girl’s mind – a girl who has a burning crush on the school’s celebrated star quarterback, also a girl. The film is a hallucinogenic exploration of the age-old question that frequently complicates a young queer person’s life – do I want to be them, or be inside of them? The answer is not so cut-and-dry, and neither is life, and neither is this film.
