A mysterious young man, Hercules, happens upon them and leads them to a magical underground cave. During the night, fueled by forbidden fruit Hercules has warned them against eating, passion ignites between Enis and Philipp. The next day, nothing between the two will ever be the same. This wildly erotic variation on Greek mythology will quickly have you falling under its sensual spell!
Bathroom Stalls & Parking Lots
Leo is a Brazilian ex-pat living in Los Angeles who has been maintaining an online relationship with a man in San Francisco. His friends Donnie and Hunter urge Leo to come up to the City by the Bay to find the object of his affection so that he can at last take the relationship into the real world. The trouble is: he’s not really sure where to find him. Over the course of one night these three men embark on a wild sexual journey that will change their lives. Bathroom Stalls & Parking Lots takes a hilarious look at the culture of romantic relationships among gay/bisexual male youth in the Castro District – as characters explore what it means to date in today’s hook-up culture, and how dating apps have turned relationships into disposable experiences.
Dishonored Bodies
Dishonored Bodies shines a spotlight on nine different sexy, shocking and always intriguing films from experimental writer-director Juanma Carrillo, one of Spain’s most exciting queer filmmakers. Take an explicit trip through a cruising ground in the body of a curious guy, peek in to the bedroom of a couple as they discover themselves and each other, take your place on the dance floor in a sexually-charged club or watch the aftermath of a casual hook up in the back of a car. These stories and more feature in this stirring collection. Included are the films Cannibals, Consequence, Fuckbuddies, 1941, Perfect Day, Scaffolding and more.
Coffee House Chronicles: The Movie
Sort of like speed-dating in movie form, director Stewart Wade’s eclectic romantic comedy Coffee House Chronicles: The Movie, based on the successful web series, takes a close look at different LGBT people who make contact with each other in a variety of ways – the Internet, via social media, and face to face – in coffee houses, and how their relationships grow and evolve over time. The movie unfolds in anthology style, with a diverse set of characters and with a strong emphasis on the important social issues that face the LGBT community each day.
Everything is Free
Ivan (writer-director Brian Jordan Alvarez) has relocated to a coastal town in Colombia to focus on his painting. After some time apart, his straight best friend and former roommate, Christian (Peter Vack), comes to visit, bringing his younger brother, Cole (Morgan Krantz), along. The initial pleasantries of beachside camping and late-night partying fade more quickly than expected, after Ivan and Cole – who generally identifies as straight – start secretly sleeping together. When Christian finds out, the otherwise idyllic summer affair brings out difficult and surprising emotions in not just the three men but also their diverse circle of fellow American expats and tourists. Frank and playful, Everything Is Free navigates gay cinema tropes with self-awareness, humor, gravity, and a very modern sensibility.
