Lincoln (2025)
Lincoln is an independent drama/coming of age short film that follows a curious teenage boy who has an intense connection with men's adoration of women in noir films. These fantastical romances propel Lincoln into a sexual awakening when he comes face to face with his neighbour, Rosie. All Lincoln knows when it comes to women is film noir. Taking in these influences, the question remains,
Has the portrayal of masculinity in these old films distorted his perception of sexuality in a modern setting?
