The three-part video explores male childhood fantasies. Revisiting childhood dreams
of who they wanted to be when they 'grew-up', these adult males play dress up, acting
out archetypal heroes constructed from popular movie characters. Filmed in themed
kitschy hotel rooms, the characters perform elaborate rituals in solitude, as their gestures
transpose from innocent to fetishized.
