Drag You
Nadia Koro, Hadrien Daigneault-Roy, Sascha Cowan
Sinopse:
Uma criatura enlutada inicia uma odisseia, memorial ou imaginária, no espaço vazio de um terreno baldio. Sua perambulação pelas margens da cidade o transporta para um afresco habitado por uma infinidade de figuras. Em seu caminho, um vampiro, um corvo metrossexual, um boy do Grindr, uma garota de programa, um ciborgue, uma drag queen e uma stripper burlesca se revezam.
