Never Ever
Venice International Film Festival • Drama, Romance, Thriller
Benoît Jacquot returns with a dreamlike story of an unraveling romance in NEVER EVER, based on the book “The Body Artist” by Don DeLillo. While attending a museum retrospective of his work, filmmaker Rey (Mathieu Amalric) wanders into an adjoining gallery and becomes entranced by Laura (Julia Roy), a beautiful, young performance artist. The two fall madly in love and embark on a wild and delirious affair. Living together in Rey's secluded seaside estate, the lovers believe they have found eternal bliss. Months later, Rey dies in a tragic accident, leaving Laura alone in the house by herself… or so she thinks.
