In the organizer's words:

After her sister Zara has a nervous breakdown, introverted Eva has to take over her job as a sound recordist. She sets the behavior of a horse to music for a commercial - and becomes so passionately engrossed in her work that a tail grows out of her tailbone. As her tail grows, so does Eva's sexual desire. She begins an S&M affair with a botanist who researches ferns and experiences her body in a way she has never felt before.

In "Piaffe", director and artist Ann Oren, who comes from Tel Aviv and lives in Berlin, mixes elements of eroticism, fantasy and performance art to create a surrealist celebration of being different and wanting to be different. Shot on 16mm, her film is "body pleasure" par excellence and at the same time a tactile love letter to the underrated magicians of cinema. In Locarno, "Piaffe" was celebrated as a sensual masterpiece and awarded the Youth Jury Prize. A transgressive, barely comprehensible film full of new and fascinating charms!
