James Dean is Dead battles with the two worlds of teenagedom: the loud, cut-and-paste culture of "pop" and the quiet, isolated spaces of suburbia. How does a sixteen year old discover their sexual identity amongst these pictures, these songs, and these experiences of being young? Highly sexual but never gratuitous, James Dean is Dead explores issues of death, virginity, and American youth.
Directed by Rory Charles Thost.
