Director: Liberty Antonia

Film: Object(s) of Desire

Bio: “The worship of fat pleasures…
You are the embodiment of lust & gluttony combined”

An intimate colour-drenched celebration of queer fat sensuality, ‘Object(s) of Desire’ is a three performer portrait & poem film featuring Smashlyn Monroe, Jade Williams & the film’s director Liberty Antonia Sadler.

Playfully decadent & emotionally candid, ‘Object(s) of Desire’ invites you to join a Bacchian revelry of XXL homoerotica; with each performer embracing their body & sexuality on their own terms, with pride, liberation & mutual devotion. The film’s text explores the complex journey to self-affirmation & acceptance in relation to size & sexuality, reclaiming the fetishization often placed on fat bodies from an external societal gaze.

‘Object(s) of Desire’ aims to be a moment of softness & kinship for fat queers, an invitation to enjoy our sexy selves, and see each other as works of art to be embraced. This short film is a slow & sweet invocation that combines queer joy, fat pleasures & friendship; all while provocatively questioning a fatphobic culture: “do you object?…or indulge?”
