The Wash

The Wash is a short docufiction set in a gay cruising spot in an open desert area in Southern California. Through an excavation of queer artifacts, local lore and gossip, the film documents an assemblage in flux. The Wash is a mirage of sorts. Like a junkyard of vernacular installation art designed for pleasure.
