Bursting with color and imbued with a sensibility that's pop to its very core, A Four Letter Word is the story of a bar-cruising hottie who finally falls in love...with the wrong guy!

Crackling and popping like a mouthful of the juiciest bubble gum you'll ever chew, Casper Andreas's (Slutty Summer) second film is a gay romantic comedy that's as sweet as they come. Wittily co-written by star Jesse Archer (who also starred in Andreas' first film), A Four Letter Word is the perfect break from the more serious world cinema in this year's festival! Luke (Archer) is a gay cliché: flitting from job to job with no thought of tomorrow, he cruises the bars looking for the perfect mate...for the night. On a typical morning, he wakes up in a tangle of bodies and heads to his job at a Chelsea shop specializing in sex toys and rainbow paraphernalia. At work he is endlessly lectured about gay civil rights by his co-worker Zeke (Cory Grant), a cutie with loftier goals than selling dildos. (Zeke is a "centered" man with goals: during his downtime he attends a yummy nude yoga class.) Luke's life of one-night stands finally looks like it might come to an end when he meets sultry beauty Stephen (Charlie David, star of "Dante's Cove"). Smitten with his new love, Luke is convinced by him to attend meetings for the sexually compulsive and take his life more seriously. But Luke's world falls apart when he discovers that Stephen has completely misrepresented himself. Does Luke re-enter the party boy world whose fabulous colors tend to fade by morning, or is it time for him to open his heart and mind to new possibilities?
