Struggling to find his footing in life, 21-year-old construction worker Dylan (Charlie Plummer) takes a job working with queer farmers and rodeo performers at a ranch in the American Southwest. Quickly welcomed into this tight-knit community, Dylan is especially drawn to Sky (Eve Lindley), who pulls to the surface a long-repressed aspect of his identity. The directorial debut of writer/director Luke Gilford, National Anthem classifies the American West as a haven for queer self-discovery and radical connection.
