2024 Sundance Film Festival World Premiere–Winner of the NEXT Special Jury Award

Past and present collide when an Iranian American trans man time-travels through the LGBTQ+ archive on a dizzying and erotic quest to unravel his own sexual desires. Rendered in hybrid documentary and stylized dramatizations, DESIRE LINES is a provocative exploration of evolving trans sexuality and identity directed by Jules Rosskam (Paternal Rights, Against a Trans Narrative) and featuring Theo Germaine and Aden Hakimi.
