Overview
Two gay men are here to perform for your pleasure. They sigh, pout and flirt, caressing each other and objects from corporations that claim to adore them. Is this simply an intimate session for these boys and their fans, or is something more being consumed? Exhilarated and bewildered by what they are doing, the boys go through the motions, posing and selling themselves, trying to give you exactly what you want. But who’s it all really for? Both the celebration and exploitation of queerness take centre stage in this cheeky exploration of contemporary gay male identity.
Notes: Scenes of a sexual nature, strobe lighting and flashing lights
