Like the original choreography that inspired this film, The Euphorian elaborates a fantasy around the Picasso painting La buveuse assoupie / The Absinthe Drinker. A woman appears uninhibited and unrestrained, though her loneliness is palpable. Her smile directed at no one, perhaps at herself, or at the fragility of life.
