Director Statement

Tongue-Tonguin was born of a dozen fertile minds huddled in a room with nothing but gluten-free chips and a goal to make something "relentless". It's weird, it plays musical chairs with genre, and it takes aim at the double standard surrounding depictions of sexuality and violence in film. We hope you enjoy.
