Eight characters (four men and four women), are destined to cross paths on New Year's Eve in Rome. With alcohol and a romantic atmosphere playing their part, assisted by a sudden black out during the toast, the eight friends will find themselves caught up in unexpected confessions, revealed secrets and impulsive decisions that will reignite overwhelming (as much as unlikely) passions. Dawn will thus salute four couples rapturously passionate and... ready to explode like a pressure cooker, with betrayals and setbacks already looming on the horizon.

A film about a film within a film. In order to avoid an X rating, 40 minutes of gay S&M footage was rumored to be cut and destroyed from the 1980 film, “Cruising.” Inspired by the mythology of this controversial film, filmmakers James Franco and Travis Mathews collaborate to imagine their own lost footage. Amid the backdrop of a frenzied film set, actor Val Lauren reluctantly agrees to take the lead in the film. Val is repeatedly forced to negotiate his boundaries during scenes on and “off camera,” as unsimulated gay sex happens around him. The film itself is constructed as a play with boundaries remaining queer in subject and form. As much a film about filmmaking as it is about an exploration of sexual and creative freedom, “Interior. Leather Bar.” defies easy categorization. NEW ENGLAND PREMIERE
