The Male Gaze: Shadows on Skin
2023, English. Directed by Lui Avallos & Marcelo Grabowsky & Lucía Rivera López & Nicolás Alan Medina & Julian Dieterich.
From a swimming pool in Brazil to the back seat of a car in Germany via an apartment in the early hours of the morning where three men dance to the beat of wild passions, here are four stories about the marks that can be left when skin touches skin. Even in brightness, some shadows will always linger. The 4 short films are: Offline [Desconexo] (2020); Hedon (2019); Adán & Esteban (2022); Private Photos [Fotos Privadas] (2020).
