Weekend

Winner of Audience Awards at both SXSW and Outfest 2011, and the opening night selection of Brooklyn’s acclaimed BAMcinemafest, Weekend is a startlingly authentic love story, featuring the talents of two incredible actors and the unique work of filmmaker Andrew Haigh (All of Us Strangers).

After meeting one lonely Friday night at a bar, Russell (Tom Cullen) and Glen (Chris New) find themselves caught up in a lost weekend full of sex, drugs, and intimate conversation. Although they have conflicting ideas of what they want from life—and, certainly, how to get it—they form a startling emotional connection that will resonate throughout their lives.

"There is also a need for stories that address the complex entanglements of love and sex honestly, without sentiment or cynicism and with the appropriate mixture of humor, sympathy and erotic heat. Weekend, Andrew Haigh's astonishingly self-assured, unassumingly profound second feature, is just such a film."
A.O. Scott, The New York Times

This film is part of the Love Me Tender: Big Screen Romances series.
