Delight
Synopsis
But raising ghosts is a dangerous game, and sexual abandon also triggers the unravelling of a trauma Echo has long buried for the sake of her children, which now threatens to tear their lives apart.
Can Eros bring a healing of trauma, or merely its repetition?
What price delight?

Delirium
Director: Gareth Jones
Year: 2016
Wayward pop star turned film composer Sir Peter Pilger faces the challenge of his life: To deliver a Requiem for his former college St Jude’s in time for the Memorial Celebrations while facing down revelations about his past and living up to his new authority as High Master.<br /> Freighted in to lead his struggling alma mater through the rising tides of university fees, student unrest and political correctness, he neglects his hypochondriac wife and ungovernable teenage kids to turn upside down the institution he is meant to rescue.<br /> But it is not from his misspent youth as an undergraduate at St Jude’s and not from the modern student body that his biggest trial emerges, but from the kitchens, where a time bomb ticks amongst the migrant college staff in the dazzling cellist Anastasiya, who remembers more about him than he does.<br /> His Requiem lays nothing to rest. Not his libido. Not even his conscience.
