Watch Float

The story of Float is set against the backdrop of the homophobic climate in the Caribbean, a world where no LGBT stories are celebrated. Jonny is a young obsessive-compulsive white Bahamian artist who faces loosing his scholarship at a local University if he does not live up to the potential that his teachers believe he can. Inspired by this challenge and wanting to get away from homophobic bullies and his alcoholic father, Jonny chooses to escape for a weekend to the under populated and dramatic Bahamian island of Eleuthera where, by chance, he meets Romeo. Together these two embark on a series of adventures that inspire Jonny to paint but also forces him to let his guard down and allow real intimacy without fear. However things are shaken up when Romeo's girlfriend shows up and puts an end to Jonny's romantic dreams. Jonny must choose between finally giving up on love, career and his happiness or moving forward fearlessly and courageously. Float is not just a gay love story but a universal story-a story about being different in a world that wants us to all be the same. It is a story of finding value in our truths and loving our loved ones unconditionally. A story about a community and a nation, and, at the same time it is about taking charge of our lives and unlocking the power that burns deep inside of us to create something bigger than ourselves.
