Director Andrew Ahn’s debut feature announced him as a gifted new voice in queer cinema, gathering awards from Sundance, the Spirit Awards, and many more festivals, and paving the way for his success in later years with FIRE ISLAND. Set in Los Angeles’ Koreatown, SPA NIGHT focuses on 18-year-old David, a Korean-American teen who takes a job at a local spa when his family hits hard financial times. David soon discovers that the spa is a hotbed of gay activity, where explicit sexual affairs between customers are frequent. He also discovers that this appeals to him, leading to a reckoning of identity amidst his traditional, conservative environment.
