Do you need drugs to have ecstatic sex? In this film, directed by Jesse Bleekemolen and Rein van Leeuwen, we see how Davo (22), Anthony (35), and Erik (61) explore their boundaries in the world of chemsex and push them further and further. Chemsex is (group) sex under the influence of drugs, a phenomenon that is becoming increasingly common among queer men. Does it concern boundless pleasure and sexual freedom, or rather inner emptiness and the fear of real intimacy in an age of individualism and increasing loneliness? The film explores the world of chemsex in a liberating, honest, and ecstatic, yet also critical and uncomfortable way. And it asks the question: is there still a way back after blissful sex under the influence of drugs?
Followed by a Q&A with director Jesse Bleekemolen
