Hara Kiri
Breaking Glass PicturesWhen August (Jesse Pimentel) suggests a suicide pact to his lover Beto (Mojean Aria), the skater soul mates emerge to defiantly ride through one final Los Angeles day punctuated by moments of lyricism, chaos and contention. How far can love take you? To the very end? On their final night, August and Beto will discover an unpredictable environment and a unique cast of characters as they skate toward a certain end. As dawn rises on their final morning, the only question remaining will be... who ends it first?
Reasons to Buy
- Attempting to break common trends in gay cinema, writer-director Henry Alberto embraces "the ugly, aggressive and raw side of queer love."
- Filmed on the fly in only three days, with dialog completely improvised by the performers, Hara Kiri is a wholly unique and commendably unsettling romance which shines a spotlight on a younger subset of the gay community not often seen.
- The New Current wrote of the film "Paying homage to the satirical doomsday romance genre, Hara Kiri grippingly explores the dark extremities of love and the innate sense of belonging."
