The
new film By Everett Lewis, director of
"Skin & Bone" and "The
Natural History of Parking Lots"
Waking up after an orgy is only the beginning of an unforgettable
weekend for Jackson, a blue-haired, queercore loving, 'zine producer and
poet. Jackson thinks he's in love with Billy, whom he met at an orgy, but
Billy just wants to be friends. Enter Jackson's hunky cousin Jed who is
in town for the weekend. Jackson lusts after him, but you're not supposed
to have sex with your cousin - right? Then there is Derek, a 'normal' fag
who claims he knew the minute he laid eyes on him that Jackson was "the
One". Well, Jackson isn't interested; falling in love at first sight
is bullshit - or is it? To complicate matters further, it seems that Sam,
Jackson's best friend, may not be straight after all. And when Sonny (Willie
Garson from 'Sex and the City'), a closeted rock star, asks Jackson to help
write lyrics for his next album, things really begin to spin out of control.
Set in a world of wacky artists, cute alternative guys and a rock star with
twisted sexual habits, Luster is a wildly entertaining, gritty and charming
look at a queer boy's adventures in lust, sex - and maybe even love.
