Plots(1)

A bold and compelling psychosexual cross-dressing drama that offers a different, and decidedly controversial twist in its treatment of same-sex relationships. "Apartment Zero" meets "Blue Velvet" through the eyes of Harold Pinter in this low-budget, black-and-white tale that is infused with moments of both intense drama and black comedy. Essentially a two-character story played out in a factory loft, the story focuses on two young men: Trevor, an angry, sexually confused busboy tormented with an intense fear of women, and Lanh, a heroin addict who needs a place to crash after stealing a drug stash from his former roommate. A troubling but bracing departure from the typical gay-themed. (official distributor synopsis)
