Keep the Lights On, director Ira Sach’s highly anticipated semi-autobiographical romantic drama, doesn’t hit theaters until September 7. But we’ve got an exclusive clip from the film, which chronicles the emotionally and sexually charged journey of two gay men in 1990s New York City through friendship, love and addiction.

Lights has gotten great buzz since it debuted at Sundance earlier this year, and tonight i’ts getting a special preview screening at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. (Come back tomorrow for photos and comments from the cast and crew!)
