CONTENT WARNING:

In her desire and ambition to become a powerful glam rock star, Elda comes into conflict with her shy alter ego Diego, with whom she shares the same body. A pilgrimage to the altar of a trans woman, who was murdered and buried in the middle of a forest, awakens in Elda new ways of loving, growing and bonding, in connection with nature and beyond the limitations of binaries.

This film is presented in Spanish with English subtitles.

This Argentinian film has it all! A charismatic lead that defies binaries while working towards her dream of becoming a glam rock star, amazing kind found family, beautiful scenery and cinematography, and a movie band that we wish was real.

Ahmad is a trans man reconciling his gender and sexual identities. Looking for answers he delves into the LGBTQ+ archives, which starts a time-traveling adventure through cruising history that includes real archival footage and contemporary oral histories from transmen across North America.

Past and present collide when an Iranian American trans man time-travels through the LGBTQ+ archive on a dizzying and erotic quest to unravel his own sexual desires. Rendered in hybrid documentary and stylized dramatizations, DESIRE LINES is a provocative exploration of evolving trans sexuality and identity directed by Jules Rosskam (Paternal Rites, Against a Trans Narrative) and featuring Theo Germaine and Aden Hakimi.
