New Directors/New Films 2017
March 15 - 26, 2017
This absorbingly intimate third feature by Julia Murat is a moving portrait of a couple—a male sculptor and a female dancer—caught between rivalry and the desire to build a future with each other.
A male sculptor and a female dancer live and work together in their big, barren loft, a mere strip of orange tape serving as the boundary between his atelier and her studio. Here, the stage is set for a low-key psychosexual drama centered around the couple’s erotic, artistic, and everyday rituals. This absorbingly intimate third feature by Julia Murat (her second, Found Memories, was a ND/NF 2012 selection) is a moving portrait of a couple caught between rivalry and the desire to build a future with each other.
