Dulse
2024

Short film
15 minutes, 45 seconds
At a party in West London, outsider Morgan quietly observes the pretentious interactions around him, as the line between sincerity and performance blurs. As he navigates a world of intellectual peacocking and virtue signalling, “Dulse” offers a satirical glimpse into the insecurities and absurdity that often accompany the quest for originality within creative communities.
