    • Synopsis
    • Sarah reunites with her friend Isolde at a remote folk music camp in Northern California, but obscure feelings begin to disrupt her behavior when an attractive stranger arrives. Fantasy and reality become inextricably linked in this exquisitely crafted drama that's every bit as wild, exhilarating, and dangerous as sex with a stranger. Josephine Decker's subversive pycho-sexual romp about two female friends and their male object of affection took this year's Berlinale by storm. Lines are blurred, gender roles confounded, and every expectation turned on its head in this feverish female odyssey that established Decker as a daring new voice in American cinema.
