Published in Paris in 1954, Story of O was an immediate bestseller and literary scandal: an elegantly written S&M fantasy that had all the hallmarks of being an autobiographical account by the pseudonymous Pauline Réage. In 1994 Dominique Aury, a mild-mannered, dowdy editor for France’s prestigious Gallimard press, revealed her authorship. Pola Rapaport explores Aury's inspiration, recreating the world of '50s literary Paris and setting it against dramatic sequences that bring the infamous book to life. The author as well as various French intellectuals expound on the thorny relationship between sexuality and power, submission and freedom, liberation and non-being.
Alma regrets not having touched the person she loves, but nevertheless, maybe that was the best thing. If they were together, the kiss that she seeks would have been lost. In the short film, the image narrates some facts and the sounds illustrate others – two possible paths from a gesture that changes everything. By image: Alma dared to speak with Duna, they started a relationship, they were together. But after a while they argue and separate. Alma ends alone. By sound: Alma regrets not having dared to speak with Duna, believing that they had been together forever. Alma still has the memory of Duna in her memory, but one day she meets a person who really loves her.
