FOURPLAY is a compilation of four intimate short films depicting sexual triumph and travail set in four American cities. A quartet of stories in which characters' lives are changed by unusual sexual encounters, FOURPLAY frames desire through themes of connection, eroticism, shame, fear, love, spiritual healing and self-worth. Tonally, the tales span the gamut from sorrowful to comedic to downright filthy. Q&A with Director, Kyle Henry and Actor, Gary Chason by Alfred Cervantes of the Houston Film Commission follows the screening.

Aurora and QFEST members are invited to join us for a pre-screening reception with cocktails and food courtesy of Tacos A Go-Go at 7PM.  Special thanks to Saint Arnold Brewery for their support of this program.
