Six queer shorts that turn lonely nights into steamy confessions—morning regret sold separately.
When darkness falls, temperatures rise in these six stories about late night confessions, intimacy for sale, high speed hookups and full moon frissons. But when the sun comes up and reality reveals itself, will it have all been worth it? The short films are: Thirst (2018); According to Mateo [Según Mateo] (2017); Hardcore (2016); Beast [Séptimo] (2011); Petit Ami (2017); Skai Blue (2017).
Writing
Six distinct voices, wildly uneven but never boring.
Cinematography
Neon-soaked nights and intimate close-ups that breathe.
Acting
Raw performances from actors willing to go uncomfortably real.
Director
Guido Verelst
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The anthology format was specifically designed to bypass traditional distribution barriers for queer short films, bundling festival favorites into theatrical packages.
The title riffs on both the classic noir 'In the Heat of the Night' and Laura Mulvey's feminist film theory 'male gaze'—ironic reclamation or accidental collision? The directors disagree.
