Jordan Firstman[1] (HBO’s I Love LA, Rotting in the Sun) was at the Cannes Film Festival[2] with his film Club Kid[3], for which he served as the director, star, writer and executive producer. The story follows Peter (Firstman), a washed-up New York City underground party promoter whose chaotic life is turned upside down when his business partnership dissolves and he discovers he has a 10-year-old son he never knew existed. The film sold to A24 in an eight-figure deal and releases on November 6 in theaters after a run at the New York Film Festival[4].
