Lonely

A brief, suffocating drift through grief and numbed intimacy, more mood than story, leaving a hollow ache behind.

Directed by

Konstantinos Menelaou

Starring

Damien Hughes, Matteo Valentine

Overview

A confession of love to a departed partner is the soundtrack of a dilapidated night full of sex and drugs between two gay men in a cheap hotel room. Their desperate attempts to alleviate their sexual tension fall into the void and they feel trapped in oblivion. This is a loneliness that can be shared and praised as something completely different from what it is. A misconception that sex can heal all the wounds created by the absence of love.

How it feels

Bleak, melancholic, dark and tense. Slow-burning and demanding.

About
