Destricted: We Fuck Alone

Directed by Gaspar Noé

Short movie that is a part of the "Destricted" anthology. Riffing off the title of his first feature "I Stand Alone", it's an eloquent cinematic narrative about despair, loneliness and one man's abandonment to pathologies of societal decay. It's a dark odyssey into violent masturbatory fantasy. Like most of Noé's film, it suggests an altered state. Provoking a perceptual and visceral reaction to both what is seen and the way it is shown, we are drawn into a solitary self-referential world of simultaneous seduction and repulsion. Here, sex, beauty and violence combine to create a mesmeric and unforgettable landscae entirely on its own.
