Brokeback Mountain
2005
Australia, June 1727, a ship from the Dutch East India Company wrecked on the hostile coast. Pieter and Hendrick are friends like brothers - they grew up together, sailed together, survived together. But when Hendrick discovers the true nature of Pieter's heart, the two men are taken in a storm where friendship and faith collapse.

What makes this a little more interesting is that it leaves us to surmise a lot of what has, is and will go on as two sailors - "Pieter" (Teo Falck) and "Hendrick" (Rasmus Hansen) face the wrath of their captain and crew. By the looks of the tattered flag and the armchair in which their judge and jury "Capt. Steins" (Mal Bailey) sits, they have all been the victims of a shipwreck, but it seems more like that the danger to this pair comes from the assumption that their unchristian behaviour is more akin to that of Sodom and therefore it's their souls that have been shipwrecked. There is lots of seascape photography, and very little dialogue to augment this short film about faith, loyalty, tragedy and love - and it does look good. Don't expect detail, though.
