Haven
An exploration of power dynamics, surveillance, colonialism, toxic masculinity, and other big concepts. We seem to be getting clues from the island’s inhabitants, but maybe they just enjoy messing with the outsiders who have invaded their territory.
I was desperate to learn Gabriel’s fate, but could not put together how the things we were being shown were drawing us closer to a conclusion.

Some of what’s been hidden is revealed, but much remains mysterious, at least to me. To me, it felt both true to the project and, to a degree, unsatisfying, but this seems to be the point. We can’t expect tidy resolutions.
