A short film that explores gay male psychical intimacy, with some explicit nudity scenes. Matt, a gay man in his late twenties, navigates the lonely intersection of carnal sex and human closeness.

This film was released on the compliation 'Boys on Film X'. It is filled with beautiful cinematography, in particular Matt’s bathroom of blue balloons and although it features only one line of dialogue – important because it cements Matt’s interest in Luke, the characters are conveyed strongly and charismatically. Inflatable Swamp is an interesting study in gay male relationships and can be enjoyed by both those who seek more artsy cinema and those who enjoy cinema with engaging characters and a simple plot line.
