dc.description.abstractCherub is a 73 minute narrative film centred around a fat, single man named Harvey who comes across a gay magazine for “big men and their admirers” and decides to create an erotic pinup photo to be their “Cherub of the Month”. The film is almost entirely free of dialogue, and is made up predominantly of long, locked off shots that work to create a quiet but detailed tableau of this man’s life. Through both the narrative, the form, as well as the production of the film itself, I seek to explore the ways that image making can be a space of agency, desire and tension for fat, queer men.
