Soft is a 2022 Canadian drama film, written and directed by Joseph Amenta. Amenta's feature debut, the film centres on three young queer friends in Toronto who are revelling in the freedom of their summer break from school, until a missing persons investigation draws them back into reality.

The cast includes Matteus Lunot, Harlow Joy, Zion Matheson, Miyoko Anderson, Krista Morin, Trevor Hayes, David Lafontaine, Matt Willis, Joy Castro, Sochi Fried, Jordan Shore, Peter Bou-Ghannam, River Price-Maenpaa and Jay Yoo.
