Sebastián Silva’s Gay Comedy Thriller ‘Rotting In The Sun’ Artistically Wild Poster, Trailer

The original synopsis from Sundance said “Sebastián Silva is depressed. When he’s not sleeping, the filmmaker is taking absurd amounts of ketamine and searching the internet for painless suicide methods. In an attempt to snap him out of it, his manager sends him on vacation to a nude gay beach. There, he almost dies trying to save social media influencer Jordan Firstman from drowning. The over-the-top Jordan wants to collaborate on a series, but Sebastián is resistant until a network shows interest. When Jordan arrives in Sebastián’s Mexico City studio to get to work but can’t find him anywhere, he begins to suspect that the put-upon housekeeper, Vero (Catalina Saavedra), knows more than she’s letting on.”

‘Rotting in the Sun‘ initially premiered at the 2023 Sundance Film Festival earlier this year. It will be in select US theaters on September 8 and will be streaming exclusively on MUBI in the US, Canada, UK, Ireland, Germany, Austria, Latin America, Benelux, Italy, and Spain on September 15.
