Eros
is a triptych about eroticism and desire by directors Wong Kar Wai, Steven Soderbergh and Michelangelo Antonioni. The film also serves as an homage by the two younger directors to Antonioni, who has informed and inspired their work.
Three directors from disparate cultures put love and sexuality under the spotlight. Wong Kar Wai's The Hand stars Gong Li as a 1960s high-end call girl in an impossible love affair with her tailor. Steven Soderbergh's Equilibrium stars Robert Downey, Jr. as an advertising executive under enormous pressure at work. During visits to his psychiatrist (Alan Arkin), they delve into the possible reasons why his stress seems to manifest itself in a recurring erotic dream. Michelangelo Antonioni's The Dangerous Thread of Things is the story of a ménage-a-trois between a couple and a young woman on the coast of Tuscany.
"For me the experience of shooting The Hand was a very intense and intimate one. We began to work on the project in 2003, during the SARS epidemic. The original plan was to shoot in Shanghai. Owing to the epidemic, it had to be revoked. Because of travel restriction, we could only shoot in Hong Kong and Macau. We shot with a very basic crew as many had decided to leave the inflicted area. We tried to shoot as fast as we could. The last two days of shooting were done in a continuous 48-hour shift. Each day, we went through our daily ritual of cleansing our hands and putting on masks. Upon the advice of health authorities, we tried to avoid any physical contact with one another. This situation inspired me to make a film about the act of 'touch.' What motivated me to do this film was Michelangelo Antonioni–who had been the guiding light for me as well as filmmakers of my generation. I am deeply honored to have participated in this project. And, I must also thank Ms. Gong Li, Mr. Chang Chen and the rest of the cast and crew for their unrelenting and generous support for the film."
