BABY BLUE BENZO

Synopsis

A meditation on sleeplessness and its relationship to the perennially unfulfilled desire for luxury consumption. Combining stock footage with original material shot in the studio, on location, and on an ice skating rink and featuring a soundtrack that harmoniously blends Charli XCX and Franz Liszt, BABY BLUE BENZO is a deeply personal narrative as well as a universal allegory. It delves into Cwynar’s battle with insomnia alongside her experience as a contemporary woman bombarded with imagery and information whose purpose is to stoke her desire for material objects. In its exploration of the restless pursuit of unattainable ideals, BABY BLUE BENZO captures the haunting beauty of a life suspended between longing and reality.
