Sweetness

Filmed in one continuous shot, this is a confronting film about a young boy's relationship with an older man.  Staring directly at the camera, a boy talks about his first sexual experience at Scout camp.  The confession raises several questions: is the subject a boy or a girl?  Why does he have a man's voice? And how do these two things relate to the seriousness of the allegations the boy is making.

Rachel Davies was only 21 when she made this film that won awards at both the Sydney and San Francisco Film Festivals.
