Drama, Short Films, 19-Sep-2022
Between parties and dips in the river, Lou abandons herself to roam freely through the summer. “Eau Vive (Whitewater),” directed by the Swiss filmmaker Lucia Martinez Garcia, is a poetic snapshot attuned to the spaces and dispositions of a certain type of youth. In a dark room, Lou watches pornography until her boyfriend comes home. Later, she takes a bath with a friend. Under a bridge, a group of boys discuss a live sex show. The film patiently drifts from small encounter to the next, observing intimate moments between friends with sensory detail. A lovely undulating current is the editing mode, and the storytelling shows little interest in plot but plenty of interest in atmosphere and verisimilitude. -KA. Directed by Lucia Martinez Garcia.
