Passion: A Letter in 16mm 1985

Directed by Patricia Rozema

The film takes the form of an extremely intimate Letter in 16mm from Anna, normally a documentary filmmaker, to her unidentified lover. From the first 'exquisite ache' of romantic passion to her final drunken and solitary dance with success, Anna struggles with an all-too-prevalent problem in this achievement-oriented age: Is it possible to balance a passion for excellence with a passion for intimacy?Are obsessions mutually exclusive?
