I’m happy to offer DC area readers the chance to attend a free early screening of Gregg Araki’s I Want Your Sex, starring Olivia Wilde, Cooper Hoffman, Charli XCX, and Chase Sui Wonders!
SYNOPSIS: The latest from New Queer Cinema pioneer Gregg Araki (MYSTERIOUS SKIN, THE DOOM GENERATION, WHITE BIRD IN A BLIZZARD), I WANT YOUR SEX tells the story of Elliot (Cooper Hoffman), a kind-hearted if unmotivated twentysomething whose fantasies quickly come true when he lands a job with renowned artist and provocateur Erika Tracy (Olivia Wilde). When Erika breaks down office boundaries and takes Elliot on as her sexual muse and subordinate, their sexually charged relationship makes him question his own desires, boundaries, and relationships with his uptight girlfriend (Charli XCX) and repressed roommate (Chase Sui Wonders). As the stakes heighten and power dynamics shift, the film mixes satire, romantic comedy, mystery, and murder through the colorful and edgy visual language for which Araki is best known.
The screening takes place on Monday, July 10th at 7:00pm at Regal Majestic. If you’d like to attend, RSVP at the Gofobo site here. Please remember, all screenings are first come first served and you’ll need to arrive early to ensure seating. Enjoy the show!
I Want Your Sex opens in theaters July 31st.
