16 Feb
Summary
- A woman's consciousness transfers into a beautiful chair, experiencing desire.
- The film explores themes of objectification and sensuality.
- Actress Juliette Lewis found the role of a chair fascinating.
The film "By Design" presents a unique take on the body swap genre, with a woman's consciousness inhabiting a luxurious chair. This surreal premise allows for an exploration of sensuality and objectification from a novel perspective. The protagonist, Camille, played by Juliette Lewis, finds herself experiencing a profound sense of desire while in chair form.
Director Amanda Kramer intentionally crafted this concept to delve into complex feelings about self-perception and the human need for admiration. She posits that being desired as an object, much like a piece of art, can fulfill a deeply intricate emotional requirement for some individuals.
The film also touches upon how those around Camille seem to interact with her more favorably when she is an inert object. Her mother and friends engage in conversations, finding her to be a better listener as a chair, highlighting societal dynamics and the role of a "witness."
