The Jungle Boy (1985)

While a TV journalist examines the contradictory homo-eroticism and imperialism of a film version of Rudyard Kipling's Jungle Book, her husband confronts the politics of fantasy and washroom sex. A pseudo-narrative whose disparate threads unite in the final "documentary" sequence.
