Losing Faith

Die ängstliche Verkehrsteilnehmerin

Martha von Mechow

In a room where time seems to have slowed down for a moment, a mother rests on a couch while a baby sleeps and the other daughter draws and asks for attention, until she is swallowed by the couch. Years later, Flippa goes looking for her sister Furia, who abandoned her for a community of witch mothers in Sardinia. An adventurous reverie into the paths of desire and radical freedom. In a game of irony and rendition to the theatrical power of each sequence, under the sign of Jane Austen, the film draws inquiries around motherhood and the “heterosexual knot—the exact moment when one loves what love can’t save”.
