PORNOMELANCHOLIA (18) (Argentina, 2022, 98 mins)
Directed by Manuel Abramovich; starring Lalo Santos
Manuel Abramovich’s multi award-winning film, centres on Lalo, a sex influencer. He spends his day posting naked photos and homemade porn photos of himself for all his social media followers. In private, though, he seems to live in permanent melancholy. Pornomelancholia reflects on the relationship between sexuality and work, on being public and feeling alone.
THE LOST BOYS (Le Paradis) (Belgium/France, 2023, 88 mins)
Directed by Zeno Graton; starring Khalil Gharbia, Julien De Saint Jean, Eye Haïdara and Jonathan Couzinié
Joe is about to be released from a youth detention centre. Should the judge approve his discharge, he will be allowed to live on his own. But when a new detainee, William, arrives in his facility, Joe starts to question his desire for freedom.
Featuring stand-out performances from Khalil Gharbia (Peter von Kant) and Julien De Saint Jean (Lie With Me), filmmaker Zeno Graton’s acclaimed first feature The Lost Boys is a compelling and sensitively observed portrait of burgeoning masculinity and sexuality.
