风既是力量,也是阻力。21岁的埃琳娜毫无经验,带着从未面对过的过去,投身于奥运梦想之中。要获得国际极限帆板赛(IQ Foil Windsurfing)的参赛资格似乎几乎不可能,毕竟她三年前才第一次在帆板上离水。她不懈的雄心一直是她的策略和盾牌,在自律和自我毁灭之间保持微妙的平衡。饮食失调只是她经历过的众多波涛汹涌中的一朵浪花。当风搅动起深埋的记忆时,性虐待的创伤开始重新浮现,埃琳娜首次公开谈论起多年前遭受的侵犯。只有放下控制,她才能找到真正的平衡,在比赛中站稳脚跟,并探索出一条前所未有的通往奥运资格的道路。这部女权主义和诗意的成长纪录片,以大海的浩瀚美丽和冷漠为背景,探讨了雄心、生存和自我解放之间脆弱的界限
Two codependent best friends become addicted to the heroin-like touch of an alien narcissist who may or may not be trying to take over the world. Writer and director Addison Heimann’s second feature film is provocatively comedic, inventive, and insane in the best possible way. An ode to the deliriously stylistic lens of Japanese cinema in the ’60s and ’70s, Touch Me dares to “go there” with its themes of mental health, desire, and Hentai-infused sexual abandon. Olivia Taylor Dudley sinks into character to portray a fractured and wandering human being in desperate need of a life-affirming touch, while Lou Taylor-Pucci’s tracksuit-clad alien persona is played to delightful perfection. Jordan Gavaris and Marlene Forte round out an impeccable cast of far-out characters who manage to be at once acrimonious yet relatable. The end result is a weird, wild, and frenzied fever dream with so much to unpack. While we may not be able to relieve ourselves of self-doubt, deep-seated childhood trauma, and debilitating anxiety with the simple touch of an extraterrestrial being, maybe life isn’t so bad after all?
