Set in the world of amateur bodybuilding, Eddie (Brock Yurich) is a small-town dreamer pursuing physical perfection and a future in competition. Living with his emotionally demanding mother (Tony nominee Tammy Blanchard) and earning money as a cam model, he channels his frustrations into relentless devotion to his body. When he reconnects with an old love and begins training with a promising new coach, Eddie sees a path toward the future he has imagined. But an unexpected queer awakening disrupts everything he thought he knew about himself.

Burdened by religious guilt and the expectations of those around him, Eddie must reconcile his ambition with his deepest emotional truths as he prepares for his most important competition yet. Powered by Yurich’s soulful performance and his own experience as a former bodybuilding champion, TEST is a sexy, visceral character study of masculinity, vulnerability, and desire. Director Sam McConnell brings compassion and emotional authenticity to a film that reaches beyond sports drama to explore what happens when becoming your strongest self requires confronting who you really are.
