A film that unfolds over the course of one night. Erna, a 1970s porn actress, appears in the present and is then found dead in the swimming pool of a posh villa owned by Otta and his wife Alice. The story draws the viewer into a carousel of events, mysteries and the interrogations of several suspects led by offbeat investigator Gréta. The video works with the language of TV series and crime stories, at the same time subversively distorting it through formal improprieties, time-frame inconsistencies and other “errors.” The film develops the author’s previous work, which oscillates between reality and fiction, TV shows and thrillers.
