Bled Out – Ausgeblutet
In this loose remake of Jean Genet’s Un chant d’amour, young male bodies are replaced by post-menopausal women celebrating their wrinkled bodies and erotic power. But despite their age, these ladies are not so easily dismissed. They will reclaim their space with blood, both menstrual and murderous.
