In Ashes
A lonely, recently single gay man searches for new connections through casual sex, in this raw feature debut inspired by Ludvig C. Poulsen’s own experiences.
Following a break-up, awkward twenty-something Christian is struggling to get over the heartbreak of his first love. Using hook-up apps, he throws himself into a whirlwind of new sexual experiences as he tries to find something (or someone) to fill the hole in his heart. Lust, passion and obsession collide on his chaotic quest to find new love – and himself – in this deeply personal Danish drama.
