In Georgia Oakley’s stunning directorial debut BLUE JEAN, it’s 1988 England and
Margaret Thatcher’s Conservative government is about to pass a law stigmatizing gays
and lesbians, forcing Jean (Rosy McEwen, in a powerhouse performance), a gym teacher,
to live a double life. As pressure mounts from all sides, the arrival of a new student
catalyzes a crisis that will challenge Jean to her core. The BAFTA-nominated film won
the Venice Film Festival’s People’s Choice Award, as well as four British Independent
Film Awards.
