The short films in Through The Cracks are waiting for you somewhere in between. In vibrant, distinct shades of grey these stories exist in liminal space, where queerness feels most ripe and most right. Stories of those people, places, and experiences that are by definition undefinable constitute this program, defying categorization and proving the true value and energy in bursting out of binaries.
A nervous young man enters a hotel room to engage in some anonymous glory hole action. Things quickly go awry after his entrance and we watch as two strangers negotiate their bodies, the hole, the way they see themselves, and how they want to be seen - or unseen. Equal parts goofy, creepy, and edgy, this short is a wonderful exploration of how the things that separate us may actually be just the thing that brings people together.
Damn These Heels Film Festival is proud to present the North American premiere of Personals by Sasha Argirov.
