White – Alex Powers and Derek Cline
This video is an exploration of the color white’s association with cleanliness and purity. The scene features models of color, intentionally subverting the whitewashing of “purity” while embracing a diverse and non-Anglo-Saxon display of pleasure and play. The scene opens with a white sheet blowing in the wind, and initially portrays tender foreplay and innocence.
The heart of the scene is filmed voyeuristically through a screened window on a front porch. As the models progress, they engage in increasingly “dirty” sexual acts, intertwining filth with purity.
The film highlights how embracing messiness and vulnerability in sexual experiences can be offer catharsis and empowerment by breaking free from societal conventions and standards.
