I Like Movies 2024

Lawrence is a movie-loving 17-year-old. He is obsessed with everything cinema and spends most of his time with his best friend Matt. They primarily hang out together, enjoying their regular Saturday “Reject’s Night” ritual. Lawrence is socially inept, and tends to say what he feels without filter, sometimes offending and embarrassing Matt. Their friendship starts to be challenged as they grow apart, after Lawrence gets a job at the Sequels video store. His work at the video store and his love for movies take him in one direction, and Matt develops a relationship with classmate Lauren P which takes him in another.

As Lawrence comes to deal with his life challenges, his relationship with his mother becomes fraught, while he develops a complex relationship with his boss, Alana.

At school, Matt and Lawrence had been in charge of the graduation video. Lawrence fails to show progress on it, so Matt invites Lauren P to join the pair as an editor. Lawrence rejects adding Lauren, so she and Matt take over the project, creating a rift between the two friends.

Lawrence struggles with his choices for graduation, while coming to grips with his place in the world and his complex relationship with his boss.
