Sebastian

Queer Blender

If you want to achieve something, you must sacrifice something else. The ambitious and charming Max knows this all too well. He’s willing to do whatever it takes in his effort to make it as a young writer in London – even to live a double life and turn the fictional Sebastian into his alter ego. Guided by the motto "write what you know," he starts meeting clients from erotic dating sites, weaving the story of his novel live and first-hand. And the polished university intellectual soon transforms into a seductive companion at wild orgies. But is this switching between roles even sustainable? And what to do when the boundaries between them start crashing down like a house of cards? The film was nominated for the Grand Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival.
