Fruit Basket Presents: QUEER MOVIE CLUB

Join us at Fringe Records NYC for a special one-year anniversary Queer Movie Club screening of Edge of Seventeen (1998) — the tender, sharp, and deeply personal indie coming-of-age story that helped define queer youth cinema.

Set in the mid-1980s, Edge of Seventeen follows a Midwestern teen navigating first love, first heartbreak, and the quiet ache of figuring yourself out when the world doesn’t quite have language for who you are yet. Intimate, funny, and devastating in small, familiar ways, it captures that liminal moment between boyhood and adulthood — where desire feels overwhelming, friendship is everything, and every choice feels life-altering.

And the soundtrack? Pure late-80s perfection. A time capsule of synths, soft rock, and melancholic pop that hums underneath every crush, every longing look, and every moment of becoming. It doesn’t just set the mood — it is the mood.

It’s not flashy. It’s honest.
And it still hits hard.
