Scene three of my Wicker Man remake idea. I was quite surprised at how much I’ve wanted to work on this, but the feeling of creative flow is one of the best things ever, so I’m going with it as long as it lasts.

This scene is the first one that I feel like I’m really able to start inflecting the original story with the main theme I’d like to inject— the idea that the cult is an excuse to instrumentalize and consume women. I’m hoping to introduce it slowly but I think here’s a good place to start making it perceptible. That way, I can move away from the idea that the problem is the pagan-ness— instead, the problem will be patriarchy. THE PROBLEM IS ALWAYS PATRIARCHY!
