Events | Fellow Screening | Anja Marquardt | She's Lost Control

Los Angeles | March 9, 2016 | 8:00 PM

„She’s Lost Control“
written and directed by Villa Aurora Fellow Anja Marquardt
USA, 90 min., digital, English
Premiered at 2014 Berlin Film Festival, Film Independent Spirit Awards Nominee 2015
 
"In a world of increasing layers between people, intimacy is perhaps the most elusive ingredient of human interaction. A person can either take the plunge and emotionally connect with their OS (à la Spike Jonze’s Her) or, in the case of She’s Lost Control, psychotherapists can refer patients to sex surrogates. Engaging in that line of work, NYC-based Ronah (fearlessly played by Brooke Bloom) puts to use her considerable psych-studies experience, as well as her natural solicitous warmth, to engage in close but professional relationships. Until, that is, she meets Johnny, and her already fraying control dissolves the thin line between professional and personal intimacy. First-time feature director Anja Marquardt, however, never loses control, delivering a stylish, deeply unnerving, and profound film on an intangible modern issue."
