"Eventually, the camera fixates on Théo (Geoffrey Couët), a man who can't shift his gaze away from one particular horny stranger, even when he's inside the mouth of another. Thanks to some crafty bare body maneuvering, he finally comes face to face with the immediate object of his affections, Hugo (François Nambot), and the feeling appears to be mutual. After sharing a first kiss while simultaneously penetrating other men, the pair decide to ditch their respective f*ck-buds"
"It's an extraordinarily daring sequence which-thanks to the expressive neon lighting, fluid cinematography, and hard-hitting electro soundtrack-captures the sweat-drenched intensity of its surroundings more authentically, and more artfully, than any film has before: see how Théo and Hugo are suddenly afforded acres of space bathed in celestial white light, insinuating a heavenly match who are so consumed by passion they genuinely feel they have the floor to themselves."
Paris 05:59: Théo & Hugo unfolds in real time and marks its 10th anniversary. The opening twenty minutes occur on the basement floor of L'impact, a gay Parisian nightspot where around two dozen men engage in graphic sexual activity. Théo fixates on Hugo across the orgy and, through body maneuvering, the two come face to face. They share a first kiss while simultaneously penetrating other partners, then pursue one-on-one sex still inside the busy club. Expressive neon lighting, fluid cinematography, and an electro soundtrack render the sweat-drenched intensity and bathe the pair in white light that suggests a transcendent connection. The film's explicitness makes it unsuitable for family viewing.
