Oil on Water

There is no way to keep out the intruders in your mind. They are always present. Always there. Always.
Art has it's fringe benefits...

This SA movie is the story about a young creative couple, whose life together begins to spiral out of control when he starts experiencing strange symptoms that he can't explain to himself, or share with her. When she first meets him, she is a young journalist and he is an intriguingly and slightly eccentric artist. She falls in love with him, and abandons herself, in trust, to a future with him. Bound by love and art, she is at first confused, and then increasingly desperate when he begins an emotional withdrawal from her and the life they have shared up until this time. When he begins to act in other strange and often bizarre ways, it leads to her utter despair and to her having to confront her fear that their relationship will not survive the change, or that she will be able to reconnect with him again. She moves from being a woman content with the way things are, to utter hopelessness in the face of incomprehensible change. And then to a deep sense of loss of her life and everything that she knows.
