Like Cattle Towards Glow
TLA Releasing"Arty teenage death, Gallic rimming, and a maddening passion for punk penises make this Eric Rohmer?like porno a real French tickler for the fucked-up literary set." -John Waters, ARTFORUM (His 8th favorite film of 2016)
Dennis Cooper and Zac Farley's Like Cattle Towards Glow is a 93 minute film consisting of five independent, thematically and emotionally interconnected scenes. The film is a complex, intimate, strangely serene, wide-ranging and always challenging exploration of sexual desire as a hiding place. In these unique, stylistically and temperamentally diverse scenes, each one featuring its own set of characters and storyline, sex makes a promise of something so intense and untenable to the characters that they feel they must enter it in secret - through an act of violence, or under the guise of an unrelated transaction, or by rationalizing its dangers away with the help of politics, or through utilizing it remotely as material for a purely aesthetic project. Like these characters, and like sex itself, Like Cattle Towards Glow is as deep, knowing, and unknowable as it is raucous, original, and explicit on the surface.
Reasons to Buy
- A visually stunning, often completely insane collection of sexually-explicit vignettes!
- Co-writer/director Dennis Cooper is a highly successful and acclaimed gay author. His novels are sexually subversive and brilliant. According to Vice Mgazine, he has "spent his life devoted to writing merciless, gruesome fiction of the highest artistic caliber."
- Beginning with an extended, uninhibited masturbation sequence, Like Cattle Towards Glow makes it clear - early and often - that it's not messing around when it comes to exploring young male sexuality. The film is loaded with gorgeous boys and aims to make you think while turning you on.
