"Scenes from the Men's Toilets at a Ceilidh": conversation in a "john"?
“Scenes from the Men’s Toilets at a Ceilidh”, directed by
Louis Norris (2019, 10 min, many festival awards).
A tall handsome guy from England (Joe Sefton) attends a square
dance in Scotland after invitation by his boyfriend (Ben Walsh). But he has
doubts as to whether his Scottish friend has come out to his family. But
affection builds in this film, shot entirely in a modern latrine with a lot of
white tile. This is indeed a curious
idea for a film.
There is bagpipe music, but the title reminds me of Samuel Barber's "Music for a Scene from Shelley".
Maybe the movie makes a good case for deep cleaning.
