About
A confession of love to a departed partner is the soundtrack of a dilapidated night full of sex and drugs between two gay men in a cheap hotel room. Their desperate attempts to alleviate their sexual tension fall into the void and they feel trapped in oblivion. This is a loneliness that can be shared and praised as something completely different from what it is. A misconception that sex can heal all the wounds created by the absence of love.
