Lucio Castro | USA, Argentina | 2025 | 82 mins
English, Spanish with English subtitles

Adnan, a young art student, arrives in New York City to flat-sit. He begins interning at a gallery where an unconventional older artist he once encountered is being exhibited. As moments from his past and present begin to intertwine, a series of encounters - both artistic and erotic - open cracks in his everyday reality.

Set over two languid summers, the atmosphere of Drunken Noodles is sensual and dreamy. Speaking on the themes in his work, director Lucio Castro has said: “When desire is fulfilled, it often fades or becomes something else. The film plays with that idea across different situations. I wanted to explore that fleeting, poetic space of desire.”

“One of Cannes’ sexiest, queerest films is Lucio Castro’s mystical art world odyssey ‘Drunken Noodles'.” - Ryan Lattanzio, IndieWire

“'Drunken Noodles' is a rich and often thrilling trip into writer/director Lucio Castro’s personal understanding of how queer romance, sexual pleasure, and mind-expanding art can only flourish when we have enough room and receptivity to feel that everything inside us is either naturally or instinctively related.” - Simon Abrams, RogerEbert.com
