Show Me What You Got

Three late-twentysomethings come together to create a wholehearted ménage à trois in this playfully erotic tale that sparks with the restless energy of the French New Wave. In a richly filmed black-and-white Los Angeles, each member of the threesome is in transition: fun-loving Marcello from under the thumb of his Italian soap star father, soulful French-Iranian actor Nassim toward a more fulfilling career, and artist Christine through the grief following the death of her grandfather. But the frolicsome trio finds joy and release together - exploring their sexuality, joining political protests, making art, and falling deeper into their unconventional amour - until a trip to Italy threatens their relationship’s delicate balance. Renowned cinematographer Svetlana Cvetko captures the trajectory of this love affair with a deliciously modern Jules et Jim flair, combining tenderness, artistry, and three fresh and appealing leads. This newborn auteur is showing us what she’s got - and what she’s got is breathtaking. (Mill Valley Film Festival)
