HE NEVER DIES explores the raw, radical exploration of queer life—distorted, reassembled, and reimagined through lo-fi aesthetics and experimental form. These shorts blend archival fragments with pornography, personal footage, and narrative invention, Kalil Haddad’s films rework the visual language of gay desire to uncover deep material truths about sex, labour, exploitation, and class.
