An idiosyncratic theatrical reconstruction of the Lewinski affair, this short film conveys the complexity of the links between power, sex and the media. Although it does not strictly abide by the rules of causality, rationality and logic, it subtly traces the knot of lies and the characters’ strategic interests.

Singolare ricostruzione in chiave fiction della vicenda Lewinski, questo cortometraggio indaga la complessità delle connessioni tra potere, sesso e diffusione mediatica. Pur senza obbedire rigidamente alle leggi della causalità, della razionalità o della logica, mette in luce con abilità l’intrico di menzogne e interessi strategici in cui sono invischiati i personaggi.
