Synopsis
Three Months (2022) is a South Florida coming-of-age dramedy you can watch online on iFILM. On the eve of graduation, teenager Caleb learns he may have been exposed to HIV — and then has to sit through ninety days of waiting before a test tells him anything.
Caleb (Troy Sivan) films everything, smokes a little weed and lives with his grandmother. The scare pushes him into a support group, where he runs into Estan and falls for him at the worst possible moment. Director Jared Frieder builds the movie around that limbo rather than around the diagnosis, letting a kid figure himself out while the clock runs. Ellen Burstyn and Judy Greer round out the adults who don't have the answers either.
What makes it land is the refusal to wallow: the dread comes wrapped in awkward dates, dry humor and a stubborn streak of tenderness. It's for anyone who liked Love, Simon but wanted something rougher around the edges, with a few earned tears. Stream Three Months (2022) online on iFILM.
