The Island

Location Cineworld
Duration 5 mins

Filmmaker Trevor Anderson trudges across a barren snowscape considering a piece of hate mail he received, suggesting all gay men should be put on an island to give each other AIDS. His rhythmic footsteps lead into a musical, animated fantasy, as he satirically envisions such an island as a paradise of liberation growing around him out of the snow.
