News

new acquisition: 99 MOONS

We're very happy to reveal our new acquisition: the erotic love story 99 MOONS directed by Jan Gassmann, which will have its world premiere in Cannes’ ACID sidebar. The film focuses on Bigna, a twenty-eight-year-old scientist, who is used to having everything under control, even her erotic desires always follow rules. Frank searches for meaning in a haze of drugs, feeding on other people’s affection. Their different worlds collide, and they become obsessively entwined in a passionate affair. Welcome on board team!

new acquisition: LONESOME

We're very happy to welcome on board a new title: Lonesome. The film by Craig Boreham explores the adventures and sexuality of young gay men in a world that has never been more connected. It takes audiences on a thrilling, hedonistic, erotic journey, depicting two characters, who not only seek sexual fulfillment but also acceptance and a meaningful bond.
