Drama, Short Films, 04-Aug-2025
A queer woman’s sleepover with her girlfriend resurfaces buried sexual traumas, blurring the lines between fantasy and pain. Tiger Hornby directs “Night Milk,” an experiential drama realizing the hallucinogenic disassociation between mind and body during sex and its internal epicenter. It’s the evening, and Tommy invites Sabrina, her girlfriend, over for dinner. While they share how their days went, second-long snippets of pubic hair being plucked and self-recorded masturbation videos jolt and intercut like intrusive thoughts. Intimacy ramps up quickly, and Tommy sets an intense precedent. Close to climaxing, she begins to dissociate both environmentally and physically. Her mind imagines mirages of men, possibly from previous encounters, staring down at her and gawking. The blurred line between extreme pleasure and discomfort draws itself, making pillow talk afterwards particularly difficult. The second half of the film consists mostly of a deliberate and interrogative style of dialogue. The film’s two lead actresses, Cricket Brown and Betsey Brown, deliver on the intensity of their lines with much naturalism and conviction. -JM. Writer/Director: Tiger Hornby.
