Bed-hopping shenanigans ensue in the racy Belgian drama ‘Even Lovers Get the Blues’

A contemporary pansexual drama from director Laurent Micheli – that can best be described as the darker, equally sexy Belgian version of John Cameron Mitchell’s Shortbus – Even Lovers Get the Blues follows a group of close, sexually-liberated friends who are coming to grips with a tragedy.

Ana (Marie Denys) is sleeping with Hugo (Gaël Maleux), Dalhia (Adriana da Fonseca) with Graciano (Gabriel Da Costa), Leo (Séverine Porzio) with Louis (Arnaud Bronsart), and Arthur (Tristan Schotte) with just about anyone who will have him.

All of the wild parties and one-night-stands satisfy their individual desires to live life to the fullest… until one of them passes away quite unexpectedly.

In the cold light of day, each member of this tight-knit group begins questioning the path they find themselves on.

Featuring a ton of nudity and some truly explicit sex scenes, Even Lovers Get the Blues is an effortlessly cool, adults-only exploration of the romantic and sexual lives of a group of fascinating young lovers.

Short Film Spotlight: Jean Fell in Love

A pulse-pounding and ultimately heart-warming 20-minute short from French writer-director Romain Roellet, Jean Fell in Love follows events that take place during the final weeks of a heated rugby tournament.

Jean (Simon Rerolle), the star player of his team, is on the cusp of earning a much-coveted trophy. When he meets Ayoub (Tristan Zanchi), a newcomer from an opposing team, the spark between them is immediately apparent.

The pair make plans to get together for a walk through the park the following day. When Ayoub kisses Jean for the first time, however, they’re inconveniently spotted by Greg (Pierre Louis Laugérias), a less-then-supportive teammate whose over-the-top homophobia betrays a not-so thinly veiled jealousy.

News soon travels to the locker room, where Jean is forced out of the closet before he’s ready. Finally faced with the truth, he decides that it’s time to start winning on his own terms.

With terrific performances, a charming romance at its core and lots of hot athletic flesh on display, Jean Fell in Love is ready to make you swoon and break a sweat.
