Ponderings and Sonderings of a Sometimes Sexual Nature
\'Ponderings and Sonderings of a Sometimes Sexual Nature\' is a strange story that sits somewhere in between a darkly comic romance and a psychological drama. When Sophie, a young ghostwriter, knocks on Agatha’s door, she sets in motion a haunting and erotic triangle between herself, the isolated woman, and her dead best friend’s brother, Benjamin. It\'s a voyeuristic exploration of desire, grief, and human connection. It navigates themes of aging, loneliness, and the way sexual desire persists and transforms over time, offering moments of sharp humour, brutal honesty, and uncomfortable tenderness.
