Artists' Film Club: Bonny Poon: Beautiful Balance + Q&A

29 Jun 2017

Of Bodies... Borders... Boredom...

This screening is the UK premiere of Paris-based artist Bonny Poon’s feature-length Beautiful Balance (2016). Set in and around hotel rooms in European financial centres, a cast (including Nathaniel Monjaret, Adrian Manuel Huber, Aziade Cirlini, Mohamed Almusibli, Chingy Hong, Lili Reynaud-Dewar and Julian Tromp) continuously exchange the roles of the story’s heroes Whitney and Taylor – anonymous zombies in Poon’s erotic narrative. Shot on HDCAM, directed and edited by the artist, Beautiful Balance is an addictive and compelling docudrama positioned between reality and fiction: candid, intimate and explicit.

Accompanying the event, Poon will preview her new sitcom Leathers (2017-ongoing) and be present for a Q&A following the screening.

This film contains adult themes not suitable for those under 18
