FILM SYNOPSIS:
This is the first of a mini series of erotic romanticism in idyllic yet more-than-slightly nefarious environments. At once glossy and vulgar, fastidiously disciplined and wildly chaotic, the films are an exercise in the photogenics of sex. The video has all the predictable pleasures of porn and pop: processed, repetitive, manufactured visual thrills intended for rapid and casual consumption. It threatens pain all the while offering decorative entertainment.
DIRECTOR’S BIO:
Actually Huizenga specializes in raw Bacchanalian LA music video kitsch and performs as Actually with her band Wet Look. Socrates is a Greek American who has been throwing his long-limbed body into photographic hallucinatory-idealism from the grey depths of London. They hope to find new extravagances and beauty through art in a future of their own design.
