Everyone’s trying to get their rocks off in this enjoyable, slightly naughty set of shorts. Buzz waits outside the apartment building of his anonymous Grindr hookup, imagining all the depraved ways this night could end. Horrified yet horny, Buzz buzzes the buzzer. In 1990s Athens, Angelo, an Albanian young man working at a record store, has a fleeting encounter with a client. One day, Yotam discovers he’s been infected with an insufferable skin disease and realizes he’s got no choice but to stop his way of living for a while. A bored gay couple go cruising for the first time, but when they get lost in the woods, the cracks of their relationship become chasms.
“I Hope He Doesn’t Kill Me.” follows Buzz, a young gay man, as he waits outside the apartment building of his anonymous Grindr hookup, imagining all the depraved directions this encounter could go. The short spans a slew of rapid-fire vignettes, each depicting a version of how this night could play out. Fast-paced, morbid, and taboo, these comically horrendous hypotheticals explore the terrors running through Buzz's brain, ranging from the feasible (“I hope he’s not too clingy”) to the outrageous (“I hope he’s not a knife-wielding cannibal serial killer”).
