2nd in the Odyssey series "I’m not a bad person. But you’re sitting there, looking at me, and you’re wondering why. You want to know a reason and you think there’s always a reason. I could tell you a lie, but I won’t. Maybe I like the way it feels. Maybe I do it because I have to. Because I can’t stop. Let me tell you a secret; if you love something, keep it close and don’t let anyone know about it.
Especially me."
so begins the tale of the Little Knave-a film about straddling gender barriers, discovering desire, wanting what you cannot keep, and learning to let go. introducing cheyenne de la vega as the little thief who finally steals something she is compelled to return. in the process, she exchanges nihilism for the audacity of hope. filmed on both b/w and color super 8 mm, the Little Knave is an enormously rewarding and visually stunning film inspired by the works of Albert Lamorisse.
