Docking is a Canadian short film, directed by Trevor Anderson and released in 2019.[1] Mostly wordless apart from a brief introductory narration by Anderson, the film metaphorically explores his fears and insecurities about dating as a gay man through the depiction of a large penis flying alone through space until meeting another penis and docking with it.[2]
Anderson worked with production designer Todd Cherniawsky and make-up artist Christien Tinsley to create the film.[2] The score was composed by Lyle Bell, Anderson's bandmate in The Wet Secrets.[1] Anderson has described the film as an attempt to push the boundaries of non-fiction filmmaking, by reducing the element of personal essay and increasing the element of cinematic fantasia;[2] however, he has also acknowledged that he had some difficulty convincing arts funders that the film was meant as a serious artistic statement and not just a five-minute dick joke.[1]
The film premiered at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival.[1] In December 2019, the film was named to the Toronto International Film Festival's annual year-end Canada's Top Ten list for short films.[3]
The film received a Canadian Screen Award nomination for Best Animated Short Film at the 8th Canadian Screen Awards in 2020.[4]
