Love, Simon (2018) 15

United States of America | 2018 | 110 min.

Everyone deserves a great love story, but for 17-year-old Simon Spier, it's a little more complicated; he hasn't told his family or friends that he's gay. He also doesn't know the identity of an anonymous classmate he's fallen for online. Solving both problems turns out to be funny, frightening and life-changing.
