The new film, now playing at the New York Film Festival jumps between three different time periods across the span of 134 years.
To love is to feel, and to feel is to suffer—truths that become intricately intertwined across space and time in, the saga of a woman and a man linked by fate and connected across eras.
Shifting aspect ratios and perspectives, Bonello unpredictably fragments his film and litters it with motifs—including, humorously, a hot spot dubbed “Fractal.” Shots of caressing hands and teary eyes are legion, the former to impart a tactile sense of connection and the latter to suggest Gabrielle’s inherently sensitive soulfulness.
In that segment, Gabrielle is a struggling actress who, now 30 years old, is worried that she’s already past her prime. While housesitting at a wealthy Hollywood abode, she becomes the target of Louis, an avowed incel who makes videos about his virginity and the resultant anger it’s bred in him against women.
