Open Marriages and Queer Awakenings: Jon Garcia Explores Bisexual Intimacy in “Prime.” WATCH!

Scene from “Prime”

Directed by indie filmmaker Jon Garcia, the romantic drama Prime (releasing on November 10) explores the delicate boundaries of modern relationships, consensual non-monogamy, and personal identity through a powerful bisexual narrative set against the backdrop of Portland.

The film follows a married couple whose pre-established open marriage is put to the test when new emotional and physical connections enter the picture. Specifically, the story centers on a character named Joe and his evolving relationship with a delivery driver named Oli.

What begins as an exploration within the framework of ethical non-monogamy gradually deepens, paving the way for a profound personal and romantic awakening and a complete re-evaluation of long-held assumptions about desire, trust, and self-discovery.

Based in the Pacific Northwest, Garcia is well-known for his intimate, character-driven independent features that frequently explore complex emotional landscapes and queer themes—notable examples include his acclaimed The Falls trilogy, Love in Dangerous Times, and the gripping drama Luz.
