The Inanimate and the Inamorata
In this short film by Ramin Bahrani, the protagonist finds and loses the love of his life, sending him on an existential quest to reach the vortex. Werner Herzog gives voice to his reflections against a celestial score by Sigur Rós‘ Kjartan Sveinsson. Have we mentioned the protagonist is a plastic bag? You’ll cry anyway.
