The Wild Boys, GFT
11 – 14 June, 2018
This intoxicating adventure is loosely inspired by William S. Burroughs’ apocalyptic novel of the same name from the early 1970s. Fantasy, eroticism, violence and mystery engulf a group of privileged teenage boys, cast away from the island of La Réunion for committing a sadistic crime. In a tricksy bit of casting, the boys are all played by women, which sets the tone for what is a decidedly weird film experience. Ferried to sea by a Dutch Captain, the boys ultimately end up on a supernatural island, where they undergo a mystical transformation.
