King of the Cruise

A rich and extravagant Scottish Baron spends his time on “love boats,” taking luxury cruises, surrounded by romantic couples, well-to-do families, hard-working staff, and retired elderly people. In this floating micro-community – steadily attractive to some, but irrevocably repulsive to others – the man who would be King is naked, even though he wears a cape. In the end, even amidst a sea of people, the man is left alone with his desire. A story about our need for recognition, the illusions of grandeur that serve as a defense mechanism but mostly about our passion to share our stories.
