Sexuality is one of the most honest things a film can be about, and shorts get under the skin of it without flinching or explaining too much. Desire, identity, the messy gap between who we are and who we let people see. These films are hand-picked, complete, and free to watch. Stories told without apology.
Him & Her follows highschool sweethearts hitting a crossroads when Alex starts embracing himself, and Hey You asks whether who's top or bottom is really all they should be worried about. Boy sits with Emilie, born a girl but a boy inside, while Annie Waits traces a woman's story of lust, disappointment and waiting for 'The One'.
The best short films about sexuality trust the feeling over the lecture. Land's End stars Joseph Mawle (Rings of Power, Game of Thrones) in a cinematic tale about running away, and Mayonnaise watches a production assistant seek advice from a sadistic producer. Editor-curated and free to stream in all 193 countries with no sign-up. Press play, no apology needed.
