[I Love You Very Much] (2023)
A loop, a cycle, a syndrome, a commentary… the fantasy of heteronormative romance is deconstructed, reconstructed, and re-looped into a ruthless mosaic that lays bare the dangers that lurk within the merry-go-round of this normative romance syndrome.
Popular film fragments navigate the dishonesties of the cinematic romance in this experimental feminist documentary. A thinly veiled autotheory takes mosaiced moving image form.
Serial killers & their cohorts read segmented love letters from Orson Wells, James Joyce, & Johnny Cash.
Pornography plays to a despondent song that breaks through the fantasy of these maladaptive rom coms. & the hoax that is compulsory heterosexuality is laid bare.
The sale of traditional romance as a sleight of hand under male supremacy is unveiled to simply be the normalisation of both a soft & hard form of violence.
