Oedipus N+1
Eric Rognard/France/2003/26min
The future of queer film is perfectly encapsulated in
this shiny science fiction thriller from France. The future
of our society is protected and insulated from the rest
of the world. Only the best and brightest (and straightest)
live within the comforts of “the zone”. Thomas is esthetically
just like everyone else, but his love for outsider Kazo
is creating complications with Thomas’s imperialistic
mother. Never underestimate a mother’s love in a future
where science has made anything possible. |
Space Boy
Keith Dando/UK/2005/7min
A lonely young man gets a hunky, unexpected visitor from
the stars. |
