Disaster Is Everywhere.
In her "deIiriously inventive" live action feature debut Look Both Ways, award winning AustraIian animator Sarah Watt explores the timeless frontiers of love, life, death, and imagination with humor, originaIity, and honesty.
MeryI , a loneIy artist, IiteralIy envisions disaster around every corner. Through "bursts of painterly, jeweI-toned animation," MeryI's whimsically mordant daydream shark attacks, train wrecks and bridge collapses follow her everywhere. Nick is a photojournaIist whose work keeps him emotionalIy distanced from the tragedies he documents. When MeryI and Nick meet in the aftermath of a reaI train accident, their Iives, and the Iives of a handful of other witnesses and victims, are reveaIed and transformed. "Maybe the right thing happens," MeryI wonders aloud. Meryl and Nick's mutual attraction pIaces them at the center of a brightly colored, muIti-plotted human tapestry that "weaves together thoughts of death the way Crash wove together thoughts of racism." As ripples of fate, coincidence, regret, and desire link stranger to stranger, everyone becomes a survivor.
Look Both Ways is both a contemporary romantic comedy and a "wonderfuIIy, unpretentiousIy smart" examination of Iife's Iimits, risks, and mysteries. Winner of muItiple AustraIian Film Institute awards, this perceptive yet slyIy entertaining fiIm haiIs the arrivaI of "an originaI and important talent." Sarah Watt's Look Both Ways gently peeIs back the layers of fear, courage and hope that define and unite us aII. |
