The new gay thriller The Latent Image follows novelist Ben (Joshua Tonks) as he retreats to an isolated cabin to start work on his latest novel and to escape the growing tension with his boyfriend Jamie (William Tippery).
Late into the night, Ben wakes to find someone else in his cabin, a wounded man (Jay Clift) claiming to be a hunter whose car had broken down nearby.
Intrigued by this handsome and mysterious intruder, Ben decides uses him as inspiration for his new book… about a savage murder believed to have taken place in the very cabin he has rented.
As the man begins to help him enact increasingly dangerous and detailed scenarios for the story’s captive protagonist, Ben becomes aroused by all the creative ways this scenario might play out. What quickly develops, however, is a lethal game of cat and mouse where his dark, erotic fantasy becomes a stark, inescapable reality.
A tense, sexually-charged gay thriller from writer-director Alexander McGregor Birrell, The Latent Image tells a chilling story wherein the lines between reality and fiction become increasingly blurred.
