Seattle Lesbian and Gay Film Festival 2009

Ever wonder if anyone actually had sex on the air hockey table at the original incarnation of Pony, Capitol Hill’s most infamous gay bar? You’ll see all that and more in this somewhat experimental and often explicit film.

Pacific Northwest filmmakers Tol Mayo and Billy Vacation, who created the unforgettable short films SEX ON ROLLERSKATES and BILLY LEARNS THE HARD WAY for The Stranger’s annual amateur porn festival, HUMP!, team up again for more weird and raunchy fun. A young man leaves his rural life behind for the big, bulging city, lusting for fame and fortune. But what will he give up to have it all? And who will he give it up to? (Or who won’t he?)

Filmed on location in Seattle, Portland, and Bozeman, Montana, GETTING OFF is a ribald rise-and-fall story of sex and selling out, and a wild, bumpy ride through the surreal and scandalous. Strap yourself in and get ready to be taken!

Contains graphic sexuality.

Please join us for a post-screening Party at Pony, 1221 E. Madison Street, 11:00pm
