series The Vertigo Effect
Directed by Chantal Akerman | 2000
With Sylvie Testud, Stanislas Merhar, Olivia Bonamy
A reclusive young man’s (Merhar) infatuation with a curiously passive woman (Testud) traps them both in a ritual of unfulfilled desire as he obsessively tails her every move à la Jimmy Stewart’s detective in Vertigo. Visionary director Chantal Akerman’s mesmerizing take on Proust's La Prisonnière “transcends any notion of adaptation and touches on the distance between lovers who are doomed to dream apart” (The New York Times).
