Alexandra Garrido

A one-time (and now one-handed) master film editor toiling in the cinematic sweatshops of 1970s Italy becomes the prime suspect in a series of brutal murders.

Melding dream-logic and wry mystery, Arutinae melts the seams between sleeping and waking worlds. We follow up-and-coming indie musician Billie Christie on a pilgrimage to the former home of her musical idol, Inge Shielke, in the lakeside village of Matlock. Here, Billie meets the matriarch of an eccentric local family who presides over the lake's secrets—a polluted portal to the parallel world of Arutinae.
