OIAF - Goodbye Mister Christie

This new outing from provocative British filmmaker Phil Mulloy is a follow-up to The Christies, which took the 2006 OIAF Grand Prize for Best Feature. In this installment, the troubled Mr. Christie becomes embroiled in a sex scandal when he is caught on tape in the throes of passion with a French sailor. Sharp, intense dialogue is played out entirely through computerized text-to-speech synthesis, producing a shockingly visceral experience of characters who are at once disturbing and hilarious. With a minimalist aesthetic and child-like colour palette, Mulloy produces a bizarre silhouette of sexual melodrama that will leave audiences enthralled and puzzled.
