I Want Your Sex
In the latest from New Queer Cinema pioneer Araki (“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 his uptight girlfriend (Charli xcx) and repressed roommate (Chase Sui Wonders). 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.
