CGiii Comment

It's subtle...is he gay? Is he trans?

No matter what's going on in his mind...that mind has been kidnapped by religion - where a young man/trans man is screaming - inwardly - to escape. Those ties that bind!

A complex film...done with thought.


Watch...

The(ir) Blurb...

Area Boy tells a poignant tale of one boy's attempt to cut off a part of himself in the wake of his baptism.
