Two lovers accidentally create a love potion while making a
batch of Jell-O. An apartment is filled with water as an act of gravity-defying
devotion to an acrobat. At turns blissful, absurd, sexy, and devastating, Marisa
Matarazzo’s stories don’t just push the boundaries of love – they show how very
boundless it is.
These interconnected shorts take love to a new level,
another world, where a sex fever can sweep a town and where sex acts are
performed while tied to the raised mast of a sailboat. Falling into love,
swimming, and drowning in it, Matarazzo’s characters often exist in places
where land and water collide: a girl without hands is rescued from the sea by
an oil-rig worker; a boy transplants a fish into the body of a menacing
neighbor; a woman on the rebound has an unexpected encounter with an otherworldly
water engineer…
Fusing magical realism and fantastical elements with the
heart of here and now, Drenched is a celebration of the fluid sorcery of love –
in its ardor, its ugliness, all of its uncanny and magnificent manifestations.
