In movies women’s bodies are often seen in small pieces. Close ups of full lips, sexy eyes, long legs, etc, are cut together to suggest a convincing whole. But what if we took the pieces apart and found they didn’t belong to the same person?

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.
