A homoerotic work lasting only 14 minutes. A wordless film, save for a voice-over introducing us to the imagery of dreams. A shirtless young man dreams of awakening to find photographs of a muscular sailor carrying him in his arms. He goes to a bar where the sailor from his dream displays his muscular upper torso. A gang of sailors, swinging chains, enters menacingly. He watches, smoking. They surround him and an assault begins. Surreal touches accent the dream-like qualities. A phallic firework, a flaming Christmas tree, and the burning photographs provide climax and closure as the young man, back in bed, is beside the sailor. Written by jhailey@hotmail.com.
