Caught in the throes of a depressive fugue, young Lynn resorts to debauchery to find joy - only to discover that happiness is a much more complicated proposition.
Buck drops a depressed young Black gay man into a sex party and then refuses to treat sex as either liberation or danger in simple terms. Elegance Bratton and Jovan James use colour, sound and claustrophobic framing to make Lynn’s discomfort almost physical. The gay short film occasionally reaches for more themes than fourteen minutes can hold, but Malik Shakur gives it a strong emotional centre.
