Vortex

“Life is a short party that will soon be forgotten.”

Elle (Françoise Lebrun), a retired psychiatrist, starts wandering out of the apartment she shares with Lui (Dario Argento), an author with a bad heart who is trying to finish a book. Gaspar Noé splits the screen in two so each of them occupies a frame alone, even in the same room. Their grown son Stéphane (Alex Lutz) tries to help, but it is mostly about two old people growing old, one forgetting and one left to remember.
