Ian Powell is the director behind the gay psycho sexual horror thriller Seeing Heaven starring Alexander Bracq, Denton Lethe, Maximo Salvo and Anthony Styles. Seeing Heaven recalls a strong visual presentation reminiscent of Mario Bava and a sexually charged, but completely bizarre storyline that recalls the essence of David Cronenberg. The film deals with a beautiful young escort, Paul, who suffers from trip like dreams he doesn't understand, visions which are shared by his clients, both exciting and scaring them. Paul is searching for a twin brother, who he hasn't seen since childhood. He hooks up with enigmatic film director John Baxter. Desired by everyone but lost to himself, Paul is persuaded to make one adult film, which will help him discover himself and in the process find his twin. However, the journey he goes on is a dark one, involving dangerous clients, an unscrupulous rival producer and unsafe bareback sex.
