Continuously Occupied with Things of Love

This film is currently not available.   

Sweeping strokes: first the woman, who then hands it to the man standing beside her; he takes another sweep, then hands it to her again. In a voiceover, a woman reads a letter detailing her efforts to get her daughter enrolled in daycare; a man contesting a fine will follow, then other Kafkaesque situations collectively and humorously painting a portrait of the dysfunctions of everyday life. In the image, the choreography of the birds on the beach echoes the wanderings of the two characters on the beaches of the Camargue. Above all, the man and woman reenact paintings by Manet and Titian, complicitly exchanging places and, by the same token, their nudity and the gaze that clings to them.
