THE BREEDING
WORLD PREMIERE

THE BREEDING is an erotic thriller about a young artist whose obsession with a taboo fetish leads to life-altering consequences.

From the Harlem-based producers of BWOY (starring Anthony Rapp), LGBTQ festival favorite DADDY'S BOY (Frameline, NewFest, OutFest), and the hit web series DRAMA QUEENZ comes THE BREEDING, an erotic thriller about a young artist whose obsession with a taboo fetish leads to life-altering consequences.

Set in Harlem, the story centers on discontent, sex-positive queer cartoonist Thomas (Marcus Bellamy; NBCs SMASH; ACROSS THE UNIVERSE), whose greatest inspiration comes from erotic escapades that are unbeknownst to his loving boyfriend Amadi (David J. Cork, BI: THE SERIES).

A chance restroom encounter with a recently divorced financier named Lee (newcomer Joe MacDougall) leaves Thomas curious about exploring the taboo fetish of race play. But when the game gets too real, chilling actions are taken that will forever change the trajectory of these men's lives.

Filled with drama, sex, and suspense, THE BREEDING is a raw examination of sexuality and cultural identity for the post-Obama era.
