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.
