Love, muscles, crime, obsession, Kristen Stewart… what could possibly go wrong? Join us for the next Sapphic Film Series at Villa Vida Café with a free screening of Love Lies Bleeding (2024), directed by Rose Glass and starring Kristen Stewart and Katy O’Brian. Set in the late 1980s, the film follows reclusive gym manager Lou, who falls hard for Jackie, an ambitious bodybuilder passing through town on her way to Las Vegas. Their intense romance soon gets tangled up with Lou’s criminal family — and things get messy. Very messy. Expect queer desire, revenge, dark humour, bodybuilding, questionable decisions and a lot of blood. 🩸 📅 Thursday, 27 August 2026 🕖 19:00 📍 Villa Vida Café, Linke Wienzeile 102, 1060 Vienna 🎟️ Free – no registration required Language: English with English Subtitles Come alone, bring your friends, bring a date, or bring someone you’d definitely help dispose of a body for. 💕 ⚠️ Content note: The film contains strong violence and gore, domestic abuse, drug/steroid misuse, strong language, sexual content and nudity. ♿ Villa Vida Café has a step-free entrance, accessible indoor seating and an accessible toilet.
