CUT PIECE

Norwegian title: Cut Piece

Three stories, one novel: A young woman travels to France following the breakdown of a relationship. Lydia, an artist, is preparing for her first exhibition and falls in love with a married art critic. Consuela gets breast cancer and decides to seek out her former lover. These stories are woven together in an essay-like, personal and poetic investigation of the body's limits, and the cost of letting go of someone close to you.
