'Inner Jellyfishes' is a Canadian short drama film, directed by Marc-Antoine Lemire and released in 2015.[https://www.fugues.com/244258-article-des-courts-de-tous-les-genres.html "Des courts... de tous les genres"]. 'Fugues', November 17, 2015. The film stars Rudi Duperr as a young gay man struggling with feelings of isolation who hooks up with another man (Samuel Brassard) for sex, but finds that the encounter intensifies rather than assuaging his loneliness as he experiences a desire for a deeper emotional connection than the hookup is willing or able to offer.[https://www.mediaqueer.ca/fr/film/les-meduses "Les Mduses"]. 'MediaQueer'.

The film's screenings included the 2015 festival[https://www.ledevoir.com/culture/cinema/456263/28e-edition-d-image-nation "28e dition dImage + Nation"].
