Synopsis
“IN THE BEGINNING, THERE WAS ONLY ONE PERSON, AND THAT PERSON HAD ALL GENDERS, IT WAS PERFECT.”
Imagine a world in which the concept of woman and man is no longer maintained and in which identity is an individual matter. Gender is reinvented and freely combined.
A nightly rush of images leads us into utopian reality. We meet androgynous people, some of them briefly, some of them we spend more time with. In constant action: from one situation to the next, at parties, at work, on stages and catwalks, in strangers’ beds. There are singers, an elephant keeper, a model, a storyteller, a small child – nobody can be categorized, all are unique, none like the other. An observation of a society that accepts all forms of existence regardless of biological sex.
