Description du film [en anglais] : « At an elementary school where he is enrolling his young daughter, 25-year-old Francis (Zachary Bennett), who has an attraction to older women, meets and falls in love with Halley (Katja Riemann), a lonely teacher living with her father. [...] Halley and Francis embark on a passionate affair and Francis acquires a new confidence. But when a girl goes missing from Halley's school, their relationship begins unravelling. [...] desire's heartbreaking conclusion continues Murphy's probing work into the mysterious and difficult terrain of loneliness and the perverse and destructive power of love. With its stately camera work and honest performances, desire has an uncompromising and non-judgemental tone, delving into the mind of a monster while courageously struggling for compassion. » -- Stacey Donen (source) |
