IC 03 Passion or Pleasure


In the feature film sphere, the depiction of sexuality is under the all-pervading influence of limited standards. A kiss. A bed. Hands taking the measure of a thigh. Moans. A cigarette. So far, so prude. Short films, on the other hand, explore sexuality, like humans themselves do, its modalities and bodies, at times in a sensual manner, at other times with hard contrasts. In their search for lost passions and new lust the protagonists here have to decide what it is they are really looking for.
