Alexandra's Project

Alexandra's Project (2003)


Rolf de Heer's psychological thriller Alexandra's Project captures a turning point in a very unhappy marriage.A regular suburban family man comes home from work on his birthday to find a deserted house and a videotape waiting to be played... On the tape, Alexandra lists all of her frustrations and begins to strip for the camera. She then reveals that she suffers from breast cancer. Before the now emotionally reeling Steve can recover, he learns that Alexandra has paid to have the neighbor he hates change the locks in the house. Steve is trapped inside with little to do but think about what he has done to his wife, and his only company is the video that continues to provide disturbing information.
