Richard Snyder is available for interviews leading up to Seattle Lesbian and Gay Film Festival screening.

The Seattle Lesbian and Gay Film Festival is the largest festival of its kind in the Pacific Northwest, garnering national recognition for showcasing extraordinary and award-winning work since 1996.

“On the Nature of Hotness” world premiered at the Festival de Cannes Court Métrage in May 2013.  Its USA Premiere was at the New York City International Film Festival in June 2013, where it won “Best Comedy in a Short Film.”

Renowned author Byron Katie, who TIME Magazine called “a spiritual innovator for the new millennium,” said of the film:

“‘On the Nature of Hotness’ is smart, witty, wonderfully odd, and kind. I love how Richard Snyder's mind works. This must be the funniest and certainly the most enlightened film ever made about sexual attraction.”

“On the Nature of Hotness" is comedy that follows one man’s journey, from teenage obsession to adult wisdom, into the realm of Hotness.

The film begins in ancient times where a prophet speaks to a clamoring mob on the topic of Hotness, only to be interrupted by the demand for a modern update.  Catapulted into the present day, we meet a man struggling with his love life.  He can’t understand why love and attraction don’t always go together.

Plot twists reveal intimate secrets.  Professors, lovers and even an inner marine-mammal named Harvey the Otter give their answers to the Hotness riddle. A fast paced multimedia journey ensues which covers all realms of knowledge:  from biological to psychological, physical to spiritual.  Ultimately, he comes to a new understanding of his own Hotness and the Hotness of others.  As a result, his love life moves from struggle to Hotness itself.

“On the Nature of Hotness” challenges its viewers to unwrap their own Hotness through understanding the biological, physical, psychological and spiritual dimensions of attraction. Richard Snyder is a doctor, a student of the Creative and the Divine, and a comedian. His insights come from study of ancient wisdom, modern science and his own life experiences.
