synopsis
The erotic charge of the title is underscored by its visual treatment in the film’s opening, with pink typography evoking the aesthetics of hourly hotels and titillating shows from the 1990s. Instead of sexual imagery, however, the film consists of an animated choreography of two apples, reminiscent of the surrealist stop-motion films of Jan Švankmajer.
