Thibault Lac

An experimental documentary shot on the Swedish island of Gotland. It mines historical data, mingling it with speculative fictions, to chronicle different chapters embedded to the island's geological strata. Working with locals to ground the film's investigations within the myriad communities of Gotland, Smith seeks to re-imagine our modes of engagement with and contributions to ecological assemblages. Scanning the landscape characterised by palaeo-sea-stacks, fossil coastlines, concrete production plants and limestone quarries, the film focuses a lens on minerals circulated in economic, cultural and agricultural contexts.

Filmed on the volcanic island of Gotland, Sweden, the work unites myth, body and landscape when a raincoated dancer is stunned by an encounter with a floating, living, rotating rock.

Taking cues from queer cabaret and art porno-flics from the '60s and '70s, SEE YOU IN SODOM is a technicolor dream which pursues L'Éphèbe on a journey of psycho-sexual transformation in a dark underworld. There he encounters a sensual circus of salacious graces, wandering hands and predatory fauns.
