- Overview
- A short film that follows a short period of time in the life of Maria, an English prostitute who lives and works in Paris. It is to her that Gabrielle delivers a message... breaking the monotony of Maria's daily life. Queer desire for history began with queer reinterpretation of texts; this film gives a Queer slant to the Annunciation and offers a different kind of message.
