Marshland (2026)

In the sprawling rural landscape of Central Oregon, a quiet and cautious young trans man named Sprague is determined to build a life on his own terms. His days are spent tending to his land—a sanctuary that offers both boundless freedom and deep solitude. For Sprague, isolation has always been a shield, a necessary refuge in a world where being seen can be dangerous. Then he crosses paths with Mack, an older local who offers an unexpected gesture of friendship, forcing Sprague to confront a difficult choice: embrace connection or cling to safety. But not everyone is welcoming. Wayne, a suspicious and territorial neighbor, keeps a watchful eye, making it clear that belonging in this community demands careful navigation. As tensions rise, Sprague must decide whether to stay hidden behind the walls of solitude or take the bold risk of claiming his place in the open.
