FLICKER

By Gabriella Foley

Photographer: Alex Brenner

Have you ever thought about your Dad's cock at a funeral? If you did you would probably dismiss it as a mere intrusive thought.
But what if your brain couldn't do that?

After a shitshow of a shag, Jo must hide a stain, a semi-naked man, and her terrifying intrusive thoughts from Anna, before she loses everything. When being queer goes from one of many intrusive thoughts to a real feeling, how do you know what’s true, or intrusive? If you can’t trust your own thoughts, what can you trust?

Flicker is a modern-day sex farce exploring Pure OCD, created through consultation with OCD UK.
