Bo Ba Bu

The opening shot is mysterious - a face covered by a mask made out of raw canvas, with two slits for the eyes... a windblown desert... The scorching sun. It is hard to tell whether this is prehistoric time or the future after an apocalypse. Then the on-screen caption, "11, 000 kilometers from New York" and the sound of a supersonic jet somewhere in the sky. A pale skinned blonde woman appears in the desert. Confused, disoriented and covered in bandages and blood, she is discovered by a wandering shepherd who takes her back to the farm where he lives with his son. The man is called Bo and his son is Bu. They call the woman Ba. And a kind of savage, wordless fairy tale is enacted between them. A classic ménage à trois but set in a timeless, eternal landscape of sand and stars where the sudden appearance of a jeep shocks us into realizing this is the late 20th century.
