Film Club: The DISEMBODIED Adventures of Alice
Tuesday 26th January, 8pm
Dir: Cléa van der Grijn, Ireland, 2023, 88 mins, 18+
This hallucinatory trip, an adult fairy-tale, travels through a long, dark night, conjuring otherworldly scenes of kink, gender-swapping, mental illness, loss and loneliness. Reimagining Lewis Carroll’s iconic Alice, the film’s protagonist journeys through a warren of bewildering scenarios where she encounters characters who are at once beguiling and alienating –gliding, writhing, gorging, dancing and uttering passages from Joyce’s Finnegans Wake. Their world promises as much danger as sensual delight.
