Nicole Ohliger

Claire, Romy, Magali, Loete, and Jim are typical Brienen’s characters: their excessive lifestyle rhythmed by sex and drugs puts them in the margins of society, refusing to believe in love or any kind of happiness. Lacking a better alternative, they take a trip to Berlin to perform in their own erotic-trash show. But in Berlin, trouble only begins. Styled images of lost souls straying through the night and their humide debaucheries transport us into an universe of the abject where all moral limits are eliminated by the character’s insatiable bulimia.

Raina embarks on an affair with the tortured Nick. The compulsion towards excessive behaviour forms the nexus of their relationship. Isabelle is bound up in a lifeless marriage. The two women meet in a church. Their physical contact begins as a caress but ends in a fit of aggression.
