THE EXPERIENCE

Join us for a screening of Desire Lines, winner of the 2024 Sundance NEXT Special Jury Award at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival. This bold and genre-defying hybrid film by Jules Rosskam that explores the erotic archives of transmasculine sexuality. Blurring the lines between documentary and fiction, the film follows an Iranian American trans man (Aden Hakimi) as he navigates a dreamlike archive filled with voices, images, and memories of trans gay men throughout history. Featuring archival footage of activist Lou Sullivan alongside contemporary interviews and intimate bathhouse vignettes, Desire Lines challenges traditional storytelling forms to create space for trans truths. Both deeply personal and intellectually provocative, this film invites audiences to reconsider the boundaries of identity, desire, and representation.

ON SCREEN: Desire Lines

2024. Directed by Jules Rosskam. Runtime: 1 hour 21 minutes. 

An Iranian-American transman, Ahmad, searching for his place in history, finds more than a just link to the past in the archives. Drawing from first-person accounts, as well as fictionalized segments, filmmaker Jules Rosskam explores the lines of desire as they intersect with identity for many transmen.
