Erotic LGBT thriller 'The Breeding' to hit theaters on September 7

The film centers around Thomas, a young artist whose obsession with BDSM leads to life-altering consequences.

Winner of the 'Best Feature' award at The 2018 Harlem International Film Festival, 'The Breeding' aims to start a conversation on race relations in today’s LGBTQ community. The film centers around Thomas (Marcus Bellamy), a young artist whose obsession with BDSM (bondage and discipline, sadism and masochism) leads to life-altering consequences. Executive produced by Dwight Allen O’Neal, the film explores the basic animalistic instincts of humans and how many of us are willing to do regrettable, unimaginable and typically uncharacteristic things in order to fulfill our primal needs. 'The Breeding' was screened in New York on Friday, August 24 at 9 p.m. and Saturday, August 25 at 10 p.m at the Julia de Bugos Latino Cultural Center (1680 Lexington Ave), as part of the HBO NY Latino Film Festival. A limited theatrical run of 'The Breeding' begins September 7 at select theaters in Los Angeles.
