Join Us For “Lost Boys” At The Seattle Queer Film Festival!

And, no, it’s not the campy 1987 vampire teens in Santa Cruz with the Two Coreys!

It’s a NEW film and it’s BELGIAN (French speaking Belgian…with subtitles!) and it’s about two sexy young men in prison so it’s under the genre “Sexy Hot French Speaking Boys in Prison” and thus highly recommended! Especially since we’re co-presenting it!

The Lost Boys screens this Friday, October 20th at 8:15pm at the Northwest Film Forum on Capitol Hill and you can snag tickets at: https://threedollarbillcinema.org/the-lost-boys

THE LOST BOYS [Le Paradis]
Zeno Graton; 2023; Belgium/France; 83 min.; French with English subtitles
Inside a youth correctional facility in Belgium, pensive teenager Joe is both excited about his upcoming release and apprehensive about what awaits him. But his thoughts of freedom are derailed by the arrival of William in the next cell. Their spark is instantaneous, but tightly constrained by their circumstances. The two are soon stealing secret moments to seize frantic affection. As Joe’s release approaches, he begins to wonder whether liberty will come at too high a cost. The film’s French title, Le Paradis, nails the irony. The two leads, Khalil Gharbia (the ingénue in 2022’s Peter Von Kant) and Julien de Saint Jean (who also features in LIE WITH ME as this year’s festival), deliver terrific smoldering tension.
