Don’t miss the romantic, funny and incredibly sexy new Dekkoo Exclusive ‘Six Candies’

From Marcelo Briem Stamm, the prolific Argentine director behind Solo, We Are Thr3e and Sexual Tension: Volatile, Six Candies is a wildly sexy new gay film composed of various stories, mixed together and united around one self-help book that functions as a hedonistic manifesto.

Six Candies, the novel in question, asks the reader to create something of a bucket list of selfish gratification, choosing six specific pleasures per year that will take priority above all other day-to-day concerns.

The film follows a gay couple who are evaluating the rules of their potential open relationship, a photographer with low self-esteem who longs to return to their origins and two executives whose immense attraction to one another simply cannot be bound by the strict rules of the company that employs them.

Filmed in Buenos Aires with an incredibly hot cast, Six Candies is a colorful and charming erotic romp about following your instincts, seizing the moment and treating yourself to an exceptionally good time, regardless of the consequences.

A hustler falls prey to a sinister psycho in the tense Dekkoo-original thriller ‘The Prodigy’

From the producers behind House of the Devil and The Innkeepers comes a bone-chilling new descent into queer psychosexual horror.

Beau Swartz stars in The Prodigy as Adam, a street hustler who has just about given up on life. At the start of the film, he’s picked up by a mysterious trick whose seemingly sinister intentions go largely unnoticed. Adam can’t even muster up the energy to care about his own fate. He accompanies this man to his isolated home in the desert and soon finds himself held captive – stuck at the mercy of a psychopath whose dark history prevents him from understanding the difference between reality and his own murderous fantasies.

As Adam sits locked away in confinement, he finally begins searching his soul… and finds himself faced with an important decision. Should he give up on life completely… or fight like hell to keep it?

Directed by prolific filmmaker Omar Salas Zamora and co-written by frequent collaborator Calvin Picou (who delivers a truly menacing performance), The Prodigy is an unexpected, genre-bending follow-up to their gritty 2020 drama Adam in Fragments. While that film followed Adam during his earlier days on the streets, you don’t need to have seen it to enjoy or understand this one. Both movies function as stand-alone pieces of work that happen to follow the same character.

The Prodigy finds the versatile filmmaking duo sharpening their horror skills – and ‘sharp’ is the right word. This film is not for the squeamish. If you’re looking for lighter fare, we highly recommend the Dekkoo-originals Here Comes Your Man and Nothing But Flowers, two projects from Zamora and Picou that feature far less bloodshed and a whole lot more gay romance! For those who aren’t afraid to get a little twisted, we can’t recommend The Prodigy more highly.

Don’t miss the romantic comedy ‘Who Wants to Marry an Astronaut’ – A new Dekkoo Exclusive!

David (Raúl Tejón Sánchez), a marriage-obsessed gay man, is forced to choose between his matrimony-adverse boyfriend and the stranger who agrees to simulate a spur-of-the-moment Vegas wedding.

As the universe doles out destiny, everyone in David’s orbit gets swept up in the adventure. Egged on by his best girlfriend and a mother who is so hands-on that she has a fake Grindr profile to track his movements, David takes the leap, booking his flight from Barcelona to Vegas.

The trip is only meant to be a lark – a way to satisfy his matrimonial fever so he can settle into his 15-year relationship. But when he meets potential fake groom Esteban (Raúl Fernández de Pablo), downtrodden David’s future becomes as bright and chaotic as the Vegas strip itself.

Esteban’s joie de vivre and generous attention gives David the confidence that he has been lacking. Suddenly realizing that he is worthy of love, he begins to see a new version of himself through Esteban’s dreamy eyes. Now all he has left to do is decide with whom he’ll be walking down the aisle.

Loosely based on true events, Spanish director David Matamoros’s Who Wants to Marry an Astronaut is a heartwarming and splashy ode to classic romantic comedies.

An irreverent, compelling and sexually charged debut feature from Brazilian writer-director Sacha Amaral, The Pleasure is Mine offers up a searing, slow-motion portrait of hedonism and discovery.
