Kristen Stewart is Lou, a gym manager, and Katy O'Brian as Jackie, a massive bisexual bodybuilder, and drifter, in a volatile lesbian relationship exacerbated by steroid in "Love Lies Bleeding."
The romantic crime drama will debut on HBO in July.
Rose Glass directed and co-wrote with Weronika Tofilska.
The film explores homophobia, gender-based violence, and uncomfortable masculinities from a queer perspective, featuring intense and explicit sex scenes.
O'Brian's critically acclaimed performance as the androgynous and disturbing Jackie has made a significant impact on the queer community.
