Drenched in sex and style Straight ploughs right through to the tantalizing details of a ménage à trios. Jana is a social worker who tries to help local prostitutes she tells her judgmental and racist mother that she works for a publishing company as a cover for the truth; she lives in the slums. Nazim prowls the neighbourhood with his crew in search of drugs and fist fights hiding his true identity as a bi-curious hoodlum who picks up male strangers for an impersonal quickie. David is one of his first conquests but Nazim is ashamed and throws him out as soon as their session is over. David finds himself back in the arms of his girlfriend Jana who is constantly awash in a haze of sex and drugs including when she performs a strip tease at a bar and picks up a mesmerized Nazim who knows nothing of her relationship with David. As David Nazim and Jana begin to discover each other’s secrets Straight tightens the screws until the tension is almost unbearable. This highly erotic drama which is like a carnal cross-up of Chasing Amy and Shank is tinged with biting humour. It also features a moody enveloping mix of songs courtesy of Kitty Solaris. Straight isn’t just a movie it’s a mind set where monogamy is nothing more than a pipe dream. Straight is released on DVD on 27 December 2010 as part of Bounty Films’ Queer Culture Cinema series and distributed in the UK by Eureka Entertainment.
