"Eros" THE DANGEROUS THREAD OF THINGS

"Eros" THE DANGEROUS THREAD OF THINGS follows a forty-ish married couple that no longer has anything to say to one another. Their relationship is in crisis but still they decided to take a short trip to the sea to revive a little magic in their relationship. They stop at a beautiful canyon, where two young girls are singing as they bathe naked in a waterfall. At a restaurant, Christopher notices a pretty young girl that's the girl that lives in the Tower," They sit silently for a few moments, nothing to say. Their quiet is in stark contrast to the disorderliness of the next table, where a large party dines merrily. The wife drops her glass on the wood floor-it bounces, but doesn't shatter. They walk down a forest path, framed by a long row of short trees bent over, which leads them to an abandoned mooring. They love the place, but they don’t enjoy the company of each other. Soon the couple is fighting bitterly. The guy drives up to the Tower where the Girl he had seen in the restaurant lives. It is an austere, but spectacular stone structure, next to a body of water. He knocks on the front door, but no one answers. The girl walks up the beach and invites Christopher to come in. The girl leads the guy upstairs to the roof terrace, where there are staggering views in all directions. Meanwhile, the girl has gone to her bedroom and taken off her clothes. When Christopher enters, he asks, "What would happen if I lay down too?" "I'd tell you my name," she answers. They make love. At an impasse, the man has a passionate one night stand with a free-spirited young girl but this experience also fails to satisfy him. After a month, his husband called him to her cell phone from Paris, where it's already snowing. "I wish it would snow here too," says the wife. He thinks her words mean that she wants him to be there with her. "My love doesn't end," she says. "It's just your attitude." With the phone and distance separating them, the two are somehow able to talk about their troubles in a more calm and accepting way than before. Later on, the wife and the girl meet… I appreciate this film and I like the cinematic elements used in the film. I love the tower / the setting because it gives the audience some clue of what is the desire of the man towards the girl in the tower. The interior is loaded with modern art and furniture. I like the signs and symbols that are used in this film. The structure of things and the realization in our life that nothing is permanent even you tried hard just to save or to have it.
