Rating:
Director: Alberto Gonzalez Morales

Screenwriter: Alberto Gonzalez Morales
Composer: Esteban Mercier, Lucas Innocenti
Viewer Advice: Contains stroboscopic imagery, high impact sex themes.
A playfully inventive queer pop collage that turns its gaze on mainstream media representations of the male body.
Scrambling found images from online and elsewhere, this gleefully chaotic burst of queer poetry pays thorny tribute to prevailing societal ideas around (hyper)masculinity. Gods of the Supermarket is a whip-smart, irresistibly funny rollercoaster through the present’s intensely upsold and largely unreachable standards of beauty.
