SYNOPSIS

Teenager Owen (Justice Smith) is just trying to make it through life in the suburbs when his classmate introduces him to a mysterious late-night TV show — a vision of a supernatural world beneath their own. In the pale glow of the television, Owen’s view of reality begins to crack.

From filmmaker Jane Schoenbrun (We’re All Going to the World’s Fair), I SAW THE TV GLOW is a mind-bending story of suburban horrors that heralds an uncompromising new voice in queer and trans cinema. Shot on gorgeously hypersaturated 35mm and fuzzed-out VHS with an original soundtrack evocative of the Twin Peaks Roadhouse, this note-perfect evocation of the 1990s pops and entertains as it meditates on identity, the unreliability of memory, and embracing what it means to be yourself.

REVIEWS
“I SAW THE TV GLOW is a remarkable portrait of pop-culture obsession—how it can unite us, change us, and ripple down through our entire lives in ways both uplifting and unsettling.”
Matthew Jackson

AV Club

“The film’s masterful visuals, haunting sound design, poetic score, and cinematic flourishes combine to create moments that are transcendent. Schoenbrun confirms themself here as a singularly talented filmmaker unafraid to take risks — stylistically and emotionally.”
Drew Burnett Gregory

Autostraddle

“It’s a powerful and deeply resonating trans allegory, but also soars as a horror film, featuring brilliant performances from its two leads and some truly nightmare-inducing creature effects.”
Mey Rude

Out

“I SAW THE TV GLOW is about the places we escape to when we don’t feel at home in the real world and the brutal truth that even fantasy has its limits.”
