I have seen this film in my competition at Cannes and 6 years ago and it still resounds for me as one of the most poignant short films I have ever seen.
It really is wonderful -- the photography, the performance, the space. Such a simple interaction.
The story line in the catalogue sounds like it is a cliché...but the beautiful way it is made and the interaction makes this cinematic trope (prostitute and client) touching, funny and tender. For me -- it was a crime the jury did not choose this for first prize. I would love to see Nairman's feature very much. 10/10
