“A breath of fresh air, a fun time that’s also a witty commentary on shifting sexual mores.” - David Rooney, The Hollywood Reporter
“A welcome comeback…its livewire comic scenarios yield the kind of raucous, sexually charged entertainment seldom seen in Hollywood of late.” - Siddhant Adlakha, Observer
Opens July 31 | 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 twenty-something 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.
