Adults Only Trailer – Into the world of the gay porn arcades

Michael Saul’s 2010 short film, Go Go Reject, was a lot of silly fun, but he’s going in a more seedy and serious direction with his new film, Adults Only. Saul reteams with the lead actor and writer of Go Go Reject, Heath Daniels, for the new short, which is currently in post-production.

The film takes us into the world of gay porn arcades and has even inspired an exhibition that starts January 18 at Los Angeles’ Antebellum Gallery and features photos, videos and arcade booths with strategically placed peepholes.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Michael is haunted by recurring memories of a lost love. Like an old black and white film on an endless loop, scenes from the past make sleep impossible.

‘He spends his days riding the subway, walking the streets, unable to relate to anyone. 
Walking home one late night, Michael observes two men hurriedly leaving an adult porn arcade. He quietly follows them to a secluded alley where they begin to have passionate sex. Michael watches from the shadows and photographs them, unable to take his eyes off their primal connection.

‘The following night, he returns and enters the arcade. Pushing through the curtain, he is ushered into a fluorescent maze of hallways leading to private booths. Cracked doors and skillfully placed peepholes offer a voyeuristic view of intense and intimate exchanges.

‘Michael thinks he is only there to watch. But his view of reality is shaken when he unexpectedly meets an intense and handsome stranger, Nick and finds himself in an intimate exchange of his own.’

From the trailer above, it certainly look intriguing and rather sexy.
