Live for Sex... Die for Love

2007 · 85 min

A grimy, semi-surreal drift through a hidden world of compulsion and loneliness, more mood than story.

Tagline: Men with a past and boys with no future congregate in the underground sex sewers of the big city, where the married men, the hustlers, the cruisers and the superlosers form a community of outcasts that plays, lives and dies by its own rules.
Overview: A semi-surreal glimpse at two days in the lives of those who work in and visit an adult bookstore and sex club.
How it feels: Dark, melancholic, eerie and cynical. Slow-burning and demanding.
About: Isolation, identity, obsession, loneliness
Content: Strong sexual content and language. Mild violence. No gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
