CGiii Comment

Call it what you will...art, porn...artful porn!

It's a beautifully filmed piece of utter nonsense...think of it as a mood-board for the feature that followed...Knife+Heart minus all the erections...of which they are many!

The(ir) Blurb...

With a highly evocative soundtrack that features Oneohtrix Point Never and Stars of the Lid, the latest provocation from France’s resident garçon terrible Yann Gonzalez (You & the Night, Frameline38)—winner of the Queer Palm at the Cannes Film Festival—blurs the lines between wet dream and lucid nightmare as a macabre, erotic stage performance sends a ripple of lustful desires through its audience and performers.


Des personnages traversent un dédale érotique et amoureux avec le désir pour seul guide.
