【剧情介绍】

一个看不见的女人朗诵莎士比亚的十四行诗，画面上是一个男人在寻觅自己内心的欲望。摄影趋于静止，音乐虚无缥缈，加上充满自然物质的背景：巨砾、小石头、大海、烟雾，还有花园。完全营造出一种人间世外的天堂景致。

【影片评价】

This film is the archtypal Jarman movie. Jarman considered himself a painter more than a film maker and thought of the camera as just an improvement on the brushes of the past. In this film he carries those concepts through to their fullest conclusion.

The moody Voice-overs of Shakespeare sonnets by Dame Judy Dench add to the multi-layered portraits of two young men and their relationship. Jarman was going for a mood here and the narrative line is pretty sketchy but if you ever wondered what would happen if one of those Calvin Klein Obsession adverts were stretched to 80 minutes by a really talented film maker then this is the film for you.

It also occurred to me that given the very light story line that this might be a great background film to have playing amid a gathering of friends where the entire focus of the group was not on the film.
