At Night

Synopsis

AT NIGHT follows six women in Paris, as they traverse the neon soaked anxiety of the city after dark. A filmmaker struggles to understand the film she is making. A black single mother revolts against oppression. A former sex worker reflects on her past. A poet gives up trying for a child.
Taking place over the course of a single night and inspired by the writings of cult literary figure Alice Notley, as well as June Jordan, Kathy Acker and Bernadette Mayer, Beatrice Gibson's debut feature film intertwines dream, fiction and reality, each liquefying one into the other.
