Vermont

2023, 16mm, Color, 20 min.

Desires shift after a trip to the mountains. Back in the city, a man contemplates an unseen landscape and explores alternative paths. Filmed in New York on 16mm by Robert Orlowski, the film meditates on city scenes to a piano and flute score composed by Cody Boyce. Vermont stars Ryan McDermott in his acting debut and features a number of other non-actors to make up an ensemble cast of mostly queer men. The film had its world premiere at IndieLisboa in May 2024. Learn more here.
