ABOUT THE FILM:

Tilda Swinton leads the investigation of a murder beyond comprehension which is turned into stream-of-consciousness filmmaking by innovative filmmaker Luca Guadagnino. Before making the international art-house hit I AM LOVE, Tilda Swinton and Luca Guadagnino first gelled when the maverick actor guided her filmmaker friend and crew in the investigation of the – unfortunately true – story of a horrific, senseless murder. Two young people from Oxford ventured into London on a bloodlust impulse: believing their psychopathic delusion that this was some special-forces type challenge, the cowardly pair mercilessly murdered an innocent passing motorist. The pair, Swinton-Guadagnino, present the viewer with – in the filmmaker`s words: `a nonliteral language of light, of space and time and behavior.
