Wild Boys
A weird, erotic coming-of-age fantasy adventure that probes dark, dank regions of the human psyche without getting too uncomfortable to watch.
The Wild Boys
The debut feature from Bertrand Mandico tells the tale of five adolescent boys (all played by actresses) enamored by the arts, but drawn to crime and transgression. After a brutal crime committed by the group and aided by TREVOR – a deity of chaos they can’t control – they’re punished to board a boat with a captain hell-bent on taming their ferocious appetites. After arriving on a lush island where dangers and pleasures abound the boys start to transform in both mind and body. Shot in gorgeous 16 mm and brimming with eroticism, gender fluidity, and humor, THE WILD BOYS will take you on journey you won’t soon forget.
