Acts of Love

Film program, FR/US 2021, 71 min., engl. OV

By: Isidore Bethel & Francis Leplay

With: Isidore Bethel

After being left by his partner, a filmmaker starts to search for the meaning of affection, tenderness, and communication. Via online apps he invites men to his place for honest, intimate conversations on their relation to emotion, love, and sex. With a few of them a deeper, also physical connection starts to grow – always haunted by memories of the one that got away.

All curtains fall in this voyeuristic portrait that Isidore Bethel (“Liam”, 2018) and Francis Leplay paint and which dives deep into Bethel’s emotional chaos. Narcissism and heartache are melting into each other just as past thoughts and humorous phone calls with a very skeptical mother. A voyeuristic documentary on obsession, frustration, fact, and fiction.

Supporting film: Erwartungen (Expectations)

DE/AT 2020, 5 min., dt. OV + engl. UT
(S X D)

By: Jan Soldat

A celebration of young, hunky guys. One is wanking, one gets creamed on his face, another one cannot get hard. Now and then the filmmaker offers a hand or asks about their sexual desires.

Supporting film: The Meaning of It All

TH/US 2019, 10 min., engl. OV
(S X)

By: Ohm Phanphiroj

Junge, athletische Männer werden hier zelebriert. Ein voyeuristischer Blickwinkel: der eine wichst, auf den anderen wird gespritzt und ein anderer wird nicht hart. Bei manchen legt der Filmemacher selbst Hand an oder stellt Fragen zur sexuellen Begierde seines Gegenübers.
