Synopsis: Co-written by David Gordon Green, this harrowing drama follows a 19-year-old boy who pledges his older brother’s fraternity. As the hazing rituals grow more and more dangerous, he finds himself reconsidering his loyalty to both his brother and his newfound friends. Directed by former documentarian Andrew Neel and co-starring Nick Jonas and James Franco, the film offers an eye-opening look at some of the more appalling aspects of masculinity in contemporary society.
“It is a film with cumulative power by virtue of its well-drawn, well-performed characters.”
-Brian Tallerico, RogerEbert.com
“Goat deals with masculinity, fraternities, and PTSD in equal doses, covering all of them with brutal precision and most importantly, success.”
-Justin Gerber, Consequence of Sound
