Me and My Victim screenings will be preceded by the short film Les corps aqueux, winner of Best Art Film at the 5th edition of Montreal's Festival Emergence.

ME AND MY VICTIM recounts the "kind of fucked up" meeting between Maurane and Billy Pedlow. She lives in Montreal, he lives in New York. She's a multimedia artist specializing in video art and he's a poet. Not quite friends and not quite lovers, their meeting feels palpably contemporary in its defiance of labels and firm boundaries. Structured around an off-the-cuff audio recording and built as a kind of Tumblr-esque collage, the film explores, with brutal and paradoxical honesty, the complexity of sex and desire.

An auto-fictional parable for the digital age, the transgressive ME AND MY VICTIM is the polar opposite of the imperfect perfection of artificial intelligence. The final effect is reminiscent of turning over a rock and witnessing a full ecosystem of creepy-crawlies scattering in the light. It'll make you cringe, but it'll be hard to look away. (Fantasia)


Les corps aqueux | Filémon Brault-Archambeault | 2023 | Québec (Canada) | English, French | 5'
Les corps aqueux is an experimental film that explores gender identity outside the binary. Constructing a theatrical space of designed sets, staged radio interviews, found-image vignettes and superimpositions, it explores the relationship between body and self. Within this space, uncertainty can finally exist.
