An unexpected first kiss causes Gabriel to feel the electrifying "jitters" of love and lust with the free-spirited Marcus; a perfect way to end a Summer studying abroad.

But as the school year launches with Gabriel distracted with parties and his friends’ own dramas, Marcus returns, reigniting the hot, thrilling emotions of one’s first crush. Jitters fires head-first into the topsy-turvy world of first love with an attractive cast and pulsating soundtrack, making it a smartly refreshing journey into the queer, teen experience.

While billed as a gay movie, had very little gay content at all. *Spoilers*. It starts with two guys from Iceland who meet at a boarding school and kiss on their second night there. Then it cuts away to them leaving. The rest of the movie is about their straight friends, about 90% of the movie is about a depressed girl named Stella. The two guys met up a couple of times, but there is no gay conversation or content, they are both living straight lives and having physical relationships with girls. Near the end of the movie, they met again and decide to get to know each other and start dating. It wasn't a bad movie, but it also wasn't much of a gay movie either.
