MAYBE WE ALL LOOK THE SAME TO THAT HORSE
From pink film master Hisayasu Sato (Muscle, Splatter: Naked Blood) comes the story of a girl and her horse, the beach they call home, the telepathic connection they share, and the group of artists who intrude on their idyll. The resulting collision is psychotronic poetry like no other.
We’re screening this as a rank tape rip bathed in shadow because the most perverse fever dreams only survive in the dark.
“A free-associating rumination on desire and depravity, flickering between claustrophobic stable interiors where you can almost feel the horse's breath and wide shots of dismembered mannequins on a beach, with an ever-present soundtrack of howling wind and crashing waves.” - Lucinda Mason, Letterboxd
CW: Intense sexual violence, probable bestiality

Three desperate souls collide in a cheap and dusty desert town. The final dive out of the cave. A palate cleanser for the true heads.
