NakedSword is proud to have provided finishing funds for SEED MONEY, and pleased to be able to support the film during its festival run.
NakedSword.com has been a long-time supporter of emerging filmmakers and artists, and is unafraid to tackle subjects deemed "taboo" by the mainstream. Whether as a presenter, a producer or distributor, the goal of these projects is to challenge what is considered pornographic. What results often blurs the line between what is too-often written off as cheap and not worthy of critical, upright attention.
Director Travis Mathews' highly anticipated feature-length version of his short was called "a conscious effort to take back gay sex on film" by the New York Times and a "must-see" by Indiewire.
Using narrative film to creating an unflinchingly honest portrait of gay life, I Want Your Love is a landmark of gay cinema, praised by both filmmakers and fans alike.
