synopsis
This sensitive portrait of the third sex in its hybrid form combines film and photographic techniques inspired by the motion photographs of Eadweard Muybridge, whose slow, close-up phases of the body in motion go well with the discovery of the unfocused physicality of an uncertain gender. The soul speaks through the narration.
Blurry micro-movements of the body during the act of love, washing the hair, or putting on one’s underclothes in the dusk of a room with magenta walls. What is this body of austere vulgarity, discovered in all accepting openness?
