Doors Cut Down: Queer Shorts from Spain

This dynamic program of new shorts from Spain starts in one of those infamous European Back Rooms. In Parenthesis a wheel­ chair-confined teenager finds unexpected happiness when he's left home with a hand­ some male nurse, and in Desire a husband and wife meet a pair of sailors in a park. Positivo documents a gay man's journey through AIDS, and Golden Whore is the story of a young man who rents himself out for his emotions. Next, a young girl develops a fasci­nation for more than Bargain Lingerie, and in Doors Cut Down 16-year-old Guillermo defi­antly cruises the neighborhood mall, making frequent use of men's room stalls.

Back Room

In the back room of a gay club in Barcelona, the camera stalks the men (privy to their inner thoughts in voice overs), who stalk each other on a typically busy Saturday night.

Doors Cut Down

Guillermo seems like your average high school student, but in fact he's a suave expert at cruising his local shopping malls for gay sex. From a random trick, to his English tutor, to the hottest guy he's ever seen Guillermo is completely honest and reveals everything.
