The Poet and the Professor
2017, English. Directed by Ariel Kavoussi.
Ariel, an insecure writer tortured by her own desires, can’t seem to stop seeing “The Poet,” an older, volatile cinematographer who pursues his ‘art’ while taking full advantage of his rich girlfriend’s beautiful New York apartment. Ariel also can’t stop herself from loving her own professor, a depressed, married, struggling adjunct obsessed with postmodernism and addicted to pills.
