I have no idea what I just watched but let me explain
Now, before I begin I just have to say that I do not fetish shame and when I read the synopsis I thought, "hmm, this looks like an interesting short film." However, after watching this I am truly wondering what the fuck did I just watch.
The idea is there but was poorly executed with the lack of dialogue or monologue in order to understand the main character. I understand that sometimes one's fetish does not need to be understood by others, maybe that was the director's intent, however, it leaves the audience, such as myself, wondering if I truly wasted 14 mins of my life watching this and thinking, "okay?".
We get a scene where he is at the dentist and the dentist tells him how horny the main lead left him which then the later scene proceeds with the ML groping the dentist THEN NOTHING. There is no continuation or explanation as to if there is an affair between him and the dentist, or what was the purpose of that besides the ML's fetish with teeth. I was also left confused as to whether his fetish for teeth is for his own, his boyfriend's, or if he groped the doctor because he touches other people's teeth.
the director seemed to have tried to portray the main character's internal dilemma with his own fetish by, obviously, concealing it from others and not finding any sexual satisfaction from sex with his partner.
I gave it a 3.5 because a lot was left up for interpretation and when I say a lot I mean the entire thing since there was not much to work with besides a scene WITH A LOT OF FLASHING, which I would have appreciated a warning because my brain was stunted for a while looking at all those flashing lights to which I did not even understand the purpose of.
I would not watch it again and if I do, it would be maybe to determine if there was a hidden message somewhere in those 14 mins. If you are watching it because its rated, "R" then there are some scenes (3?) but that is all it is and maybe some more development would have made it better.
