SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
EROS is a three-part anthology film about eroticism and desire
by a trio of world cinema's outstanding directors, Wong Kar
Wai, Steven Soderbergh and Michelangelo Antonioni. The film
also serves as an homage by two younger directors, Wong and
Soderbergh, to Antonioni who has informed and inspired their
work. The Italian master has extensively examined this terrain
in such classics as L'AVVENTURA, BLOWUP and THE PASSENGER.
"The Hand": A richly textured and achingly emotional
erotic tale about a young tailor's (Chang Chen) long-time
unrequited love for a beautiful Hong Kong courtesan (Gong
Li). Directed by Wong Kar-Wai.
"Equilibrium": A wry and perverse comedy about
an advertising executive (Robert Downey, Jr.) who is under
enormous pressure at work. During visits to his psychiatrist
(Alan Arkin), they delve into the possible reasons why his
stress seems to manifest itself in a recurring erotic dream.
Directed by Steven Soderbergh.
"The Dangerous Thread of Things": The story of
a ménage-a-trois between a couple and a young woman
on the coast of Tuscany. Directed by Michelangelo Antonioni
(Co-written by Tonino Guerra).
