Done well on the whole...but, what was with Magritte's 'The Son of Man' thing!?!

Some good music...some good imagery...just get rid of the apple!

The(ir) Blurb...

Sllent film set to the music and poetry of Queer artist, MaDame Düx.  The MC is re-writing the journey of four Queer characters on a vintage Underwood typewriter. Each Character, seems destined to a miserable life in black & white until the MC intervenes. The MC reroutes their destiny’s, releasing them from their pain, shame and unhappiness. Finally they are able to forgive themselves and in that moment they are freed from their colorless lives and instantly transported to a brilliant harlequin streaked, Queer jubilee hosted by our MC, played by the artist MaDame Düx. We journey with each Character as their story is rewritten.
