Adnan, a young art student, arrives in New York City to flat-sit for the summer. 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. [Strand Releasing]

"Sultry … Hypnotic. ..Undoubtably beautiful."
— Rory O’Connor, The Film Stage
"An unflinching and unconventional romantic drama that also serves as a mildly engrossing character study."
— Avi Offer, NYC Movie Guru
"Drunken Noodles is the kind of queer art that feels timeless and playful — a testament to the magical places the baser instincts can lead us."
— Jason Shawhan, Nashville Scene
"Drunken Noodles feels like an experimental, even mixed-media, film. In a way, its emblematic of desire itself: sometimes inexplicable, always shifting."
— Jericho Tadeo, Exclaim!
"[Drunken Noodles] obtains the magic of the lazy queer summer romance. [It] will resonate deeply with any queer man who has found themselves adrift and longing for intimacy over those long hot summers."
— Luke Hearfield, Next Best Picture
"Khalifeh, in his feature debut, is fabulously understated as Adnan. He’s the kind of super-likable character that you’d want to spend a day with, wide-eyed when he’s interested, seemingly indolent, yet playful and seductive."
— Frank J. Avella, The Contending
"[It’s] about the soul-expanding crossroads that we hopefully find ourselves at whenever we allow a combination of worldly and intellectual pleasures to transport us, without judgment or distinction, to a heightened state."
— Simon Abrams, RogerEbert.com
