About the Film
When various parts of William's identity collide during a writing retreat, he seeks solace in a path that leads to a wild code-switching mashup.
Now that our festival run is complete, we're so happy to share the final cut of our film. Enjoy the link here!
Synopsis
William, an ethnically mixed gay professional, sequesters himself in a secluded owl-themed cottage for the weekend in order to write a personal statement due Monday. Yet various people in his life keep interrupting him by phone, roping him into their dilemmas. William code-switches to talk to his corporate boss, his cousin from the block, and his long-term boyfriend. As the phone calls (and procrastination) intensify, William entertains a different kind of retreat, which causes his code-switching to dissolve into a wild identity unraveling.
