Untitled Composition #1

Synopsis

Untitled Composition #1 is a poetic and surreal study of identity, human relations and self analytical on the very subject of cinema and theatre itself as an artform. This is an experiment in minimalism rather than an attempt to entertain.

Two members of a disilllusioned generation, a man and a woman, get together one dark November night to discuss life, love, sex, politics and almost everything in between.

At first she is the more talkative of the pair. Using his silence and reluctance to reveal anything about himself, he gradually manipulates her into taking part of his darker agenda.

As they slowly start revealing their true identity to each other and decide to play Russian roulette, they begin a journey that will change their lives forever.
