"The film uses a distorted fragment from Michelangelo Antonioni’s classic film L’Eclisse, 1962, in which the actress Monica Vitti turns her back t the camera. The contrast in the images is exaggerated, which appears to exorcise the protagonists. Vitti’s opponent in the film, Alain Delon, becomes an almost unrecognisable shadow in a layered sequence in which close-ups of a fish is the most impressive footage. Now and then, there are moments of obstruction, in which a void occurs."
