In an esoteric temple, grown men return to their boyhood and play innocently. Model aeroplanes, paper butterflies, vehicles, tin toys... the things that boys like emerge from the darkness. A short film that visualises dreams of a distant boyhood with a unique aesthetic.

Sean is taken to a motel and is given a prostitute for his 18th birthday by his father. He must sleep with her to "fix" his questionable homosexuality. "Pretty Boy" is a coming of age story of a young bullied teen, Sean, struggling with his sexuality and the hardships of high school. After his father finds some questionable magazines in his room, this devout Christian will go to any lengths to get his son to find the light and "perform" the way a man should. Sean is introduced to Katie, a prostitute that understands the stigmas of modern society and helps him see the true light that is within him.
