Constant Craving
Whether in a post-apocalyptic sauna, a NYC subway car, a cruise-y back alley, a sweltering bedroom, a dream metropolis, or on the outskirts of Rio, humans long to connect, and some desires burn hotter than others. These adventurous and sensual queer shorts find their subjects — a futuristic wanderer, a biker dyke, a naked dreamer, a sultry saxophonist, and two couples in love — crossing cities, generations, even states of consciousness to chase their fantasies.
Short films showing in this program:
Exalted Mars
A man is dreaming of a city. Unless the city is dreaming of him. Winner of the prestigious Teddy Award for Best Short at this year’s Berlinale.
Fou de Bassan
Dead city. Foggy night. A saxophone is playing. Lust is lurking. From Festival favorite Yann Gonzalez (Knife+Heart).
Kiss
Encountering an impossible kiss, in an era where physical contact is strictly forbidden.
The Man of My Dreams
Two magnetic lovers traipse around the city streets in a dreamy romance. From the director of Lilac Lips, Dutchess County (Frameline45).
Melting Point
Melting Point is a queer, experimental, feminist erotic short that captures the heat between two lovers, literally. Shot with a digital thermal camera, the film records the scene using temperature instead of light, revealing new ways of seeing pleasure, play, and desire.
A Wild Patience Has Taken Me Here
A middle-aged biker is faced with an unexpected but desired encounter with a group of young queer women. When they come together, their universes do not collide but create a timeless identification shared by a common language.
Expected Guests
