Strawberry Mansion (2021) Beware! In the future, the govenment will tax your dreams. Albert Birney and lead actor Kentucker Audley concocted this extraordinarily unpredictable exploration of the human psyche, as well as the nefarious implications of corporate advertising, among other things, in an homage to le fantastique in cinema. Fifteen years in the making, this independent film was released at Sundance in 2021. This has to be seen to be believed.
Proteus by the sea
Dissembles prophesy
By changing to words
The reckless goatherds
Carousing joyously,
Shouting, “Proteus by the sea!
Proteus by the sea!”
Protean diversity
Allows a nation to see
In its multiple kinds
Of peoples those binds
That strengthen its unity,
Shouting, “Proteus by the sea!
Proteus by the sea!”
Whether lion or snake he be,
Whether water or tree she be,
When both merge together
They transform each other
To pure androgyny,
Shouting, “Proteus by the sea!
Proteus by the sea!”
