Starring comedian Tig Notaro alongside Dakota Johnson, Am I OK? is set to hit streaming in the coming days via its release in the United States on June 6. The movie, which premiered in January 2022 at the Sundance Film Festival, also features Tig Notaro as the co-director alongside Stephanie Allynne. The movie revolves around the character of Lucy, played by Johnson, a 32-year-old woman who realizes that the reason her dates with men have not been working out is because she is a lesbian.
She proceeds to take help from her best friend Jane, played by Sonoya Mizuno, as she undergoes a huge transformation concerning her dating life and attempts to come to terms with her newfound sexuality. While the movie’s debut at Sundance was met positively, it now embarks on its streaming release and will be available to be streamed on Max, starting June 6.
