- Synopsis
- Laurence Sterne's unfilmable novel, "Tristram Shandy", a fictive autobiography wherein the narrator, interrupted constantly, takes the entire story to be born. Then into a group of actors and filmmakers set out to adapt it. Size matters: parts, egos, shoes, noses. The lead's girlfriend, with their infant son, is up from London for the night, wanting sex. Scenes are shot, re-shot, and discarded. The purpose of the project is elusive. Life is amorphous, too full and too rich to be captured in one narrative.
