A friendship is tested as two women experience something strange in the desert.

In Simon Amstell’s affecting, bittersweet comedy, a rising young filmmaker is thrown into emotional turmoil by a burgeoning romance and the upcoming premiere of his second feature.

Four women have given up on getting their men to do what they want until they find a how to book written by Steve Harvey. They start using his advice about relationships, and their men start falling in line, until the men discover what the women have been doing, then the war is on.

Six individuals cross paths over the course of one afternoon at a sparsely attended Manhattan bar, each struggling with physical and emotional boundaries being crossed, leading them to question who they are and who they might become.

This book discusses the active relationship among the mechanics of memory, visual practices, and historical narratives.
Reflection on memory and its ties with historical narratives cannot be separated from reflection on the visual and the image as its points of reference which function in time. This volume addresses precisely that temporal aspect of the image, without reducing it to a neutral trace of the past, a mnemotechnical support of memory.
