Summary

This film uses a 'scene' between a woman and an FTM transsexual to mobilise Gilles Deleuzes's work on masochism as explored in his book 'Coldness and Cruelty'. Critical of all manifestations of fascism, the film's visuals and sound set up a tension between two libidinal economies - that of fascism (the super father) where the father is everything, and the world of the masochist, where the mother is everything and the father is nothing.
