E FOR EILEEN
An enigmatic character spends her last day in the house she designed and built. Her solitude is interrupted by the arrival of old friends who threaten to drown her in the past. A speculative fiction, E for Eileen is shot entirely at Eileen Gray’s villa E-1027 — one of three French national monuments of the modern era, and the only one built by a woman.
