Last summer, as Lynn Shelton’s Sundance fave Humpday was about to open in theaters, Dan Savage, the founder of Seattle amateur porn festival “HUMP!” called out Shelton on his blog. “He demanded that I show HUMP! some love because, as he pointed out, without the existence of HUMP!, there would have been no Humpday,” Shelton told indieWIRE today. “I had to agree.” In fulfillment of her promise to Savage, Shelton decided to make a quasi-sequel to Humpday to screen at HUMP! Entitled Beyond Gay, the short film follows a gay man and a lesbian who attempt to get it on one particularly randy morning. Shelton came up with the concept for the short while filming $5 Cover Seattle. IndieWIRE has the short up for viewing at the above link.
