Kiss of the Rabbit God

Directed by Andrew Thomas Huang

A weary Chinese-American restaurant worker becomes fascinated by a mysterious customer who begins appearing in his dreams.
Kiss of the Rabbit God feels less like a conventional romance than a myth breaking into ordinary life. Andrew Thomas Huang’s gay short film follows a Chinese-American restaurant worker drawn into a sensual encounter with the Rabbit God, mixing folklore, desire and spiritual imagery with real visual confidence. The eroticism is central, but the deeper pleasure comes from seeing gay desire placed inside a cultural mythology rather than outside it.
