The Delta

Lincoln, a teenager from a well-off Jewish family, appears to lead an ordinary heterosexual life. Yet, on some nights, he secretly ventures out in search of men. When he meets a young Vietnamese immigrant, his hidden desires surface, forcing him to confront an internal struggle between love, desire, and self-acceptance. The Delta offers a candid reflection on the search for identity in a world fraught with prejudice and complexity, where difference is often unwelcome.
