In Bed
Tel Aviv, present day. Two friends, Guy and Joy, are taking part in the city's LGBTQ+ Pride Parade celebrations. Prepared for a night of hookups, drugs and dancing, their fun is suddenly cut short when a violent shooting sends everyone in the crowd running for safety. In their rush to get home, Guy and Joy encounter Dan, a fellow parade attendee. A manhunt for the shooter begins outside, but back in Guy's apartment, the three are determined to still have a good time. Still in shock and with plenty of drugs at their disposal, a dark, sex-fueled odyssey begins. As the drugs continue to distort his perception, a paranoid and strung-out Guy discovers the line between intimacy and violence are getting dangerously blurred.
Set over a hallucinatory 24 hours, Nitzan Gilady's erotic second feature takes an unflinching look at party culture with a fast-paced electronic soundtrack by Offer Nissim and immersive cinematography. Starring popular Israeli actors, Israel Ogalbo, Dean Miroshnikov and Moran Rosenblatt, IN BED tackles the highs and lows of recreational drug use and chem-sex within gay communities.

Reviews
- "Lively and colorful, this Israeli drama quickly pivots from happy revelry to dark intrigue, keeping the characters grounded with earthy humor as the suspense grows. Filmmaker Nitzan Gilady skilfully evokes the tactile nature of a summery, shirtless, sexually charged situation that gets increasingly scary."
