Gregg Araki Double Bill: I Want Your Sex — Carbon Arc – Aug 29

Saturday, August 29, 6:00 PM Gregg Araki | USA | 2026 | 90 mins Legendary American auteur Gregg Araki makes a vibrant return to the big screen after 12 long years with I Want Your Sex . We’re pairing it with a brand new 4K restoration of Mysterious Skin ! I Want Your Sex tells the story of Elliot (Cooper Hoffman), a kind-hearted if unmotivated twentysomething whose fantasies quickly come true when he lands a job with renowned artist and provocateur Erika Tracy (Olivia Wilde). When Erika breaks down office boundaries and takes Elliot on as her sexual muse and subordinate, their sexually charged relationship makes him question his own desires, boundaries and relationships with other people in his life. As the stakes heighten and power dynamics shift, the film mixes satire, romantic comedy, mystery and murder through the colorful and edgy visual language for which Araki is known. “This silly-sexy slice of pop-noir art world satire serves as Araki’s manifesto about the power and creative energy of the erotic, and it just might be the hottest, and most refreshingly honest, rom-com of the summer.” – Katie Walsh, Arizona Daily Sun “In an indie landscape with an insatiable appetite for trauma and misery, it’s a breath of fresh air, a fun time that’s also a witty commentary on shifting sexual mores.” – David Rooney, The Hollywood Reporter “From moment to moment, the movie is pure pleasure;full of bright colors, delectable sight gags and sharp, pop-culture-savvy one-liners.“ – Justin Chang, NPR Tickets $12 ($11.40 at the door if available) Saturday, August 29, 6:00 PM tickets Tagged coming soon
