Plot

In Erotique, Tscherkassky invites viewers into a tantalizing dance of cinematic perception, where the distinct becomes indistinct, the familiar merges with the unfamiliar. The film demands the viewer's participation, leading them through a labyrinth of fleeting images, fragments of a woman's face - red lips, eyes, constantly in motion, as if caught in an eternal cycle of desire. Often, it challenges the viewer to discern what they truly behold - a tantalizing game of hide and seek with the human form that might, if one so chooses, hint at sexual organs or acts. The film's abstract nature doesn't offer a full, coherent body, rather it revels in the beauty of parts, of details, of moments. Erotique thus shines a spotlight on one of cinema's enduring conundrums - the portrayal of the human body. In this way, the film is not just a viewing experience but a journey into the depths of perception and desire, leaving viewers with more questions than answers.
