the intruder, lintrus (claire denis, 2004)
rich, strange, and tantalizingly enigmatic, claire deniss uncanny odyssey is a mesmeric sensory experience that haunts like a halfremembered dream. inspired by a book by philosopher jeanluc nancy, the intruder skips across time and continentsfrom the alpine wilds to a neonlit korea to a tropical tahiti suffused with languorous melancholyas it traces the journey of an inscrutable, ailing loner (michel subor) seeking both a blackmarket heart transplant and his longlost son. an impressionist wash of hallucinations, memories, and dreams are borne along on the lush textures of agnès godards shimmering cinematography.
