COLORBLIND – an e/e modern au (soon to come)But as Enjolras looked around, he realized that the people were smiling, laughing a little. People were grabbing their own lovers to dance - pairs of girls and boys, boys and boys, girls and girls, all flocked to the floor with drinks in hand. Their music filled the room. Éponine shouted, “This is what it means to be alive!” and her words filled Enjolras with a kind of dreadful hope that he had never wanted to feel - not until that night.
In which Enjolras starts college in Jersey, a small island located between France and England. His roommate, Marius, is almost too much to handle due to his lovesick tendencies, and all he can think of is the city he left behind: Paris. However, the focus on his studies begins to slip when Marius introduces him to Eponine, a street performer and pick-pocketer who is as wild as she is intriguing. She shows him a dark new world just beneath the island’s carefree surface, full of inspiration and creation and secrecy. But is Enjolras really prepared to risk everything for the chance to finally feel alive?
When it comes to matters of love, it’s often platonic devotion that proves the most intimate and carries the most weight in one’s life. It’s the love stories of friendship, the decades-spanning, unbreakable connection to someone that stays around as lovers come and go. Yes, romantic love is an all-encompassing illness of the heart, but without a best friend to guide you, life becomes less tolerable. Cinema has long been awash in tales of romantic love, of course, but it’s rare to see a tale of love between two female best friends, especially one that genuinely shows what it is like to have that kind of soul mate, without whom everything else would be askew. But with Noah Baumbach’s latest film, Frances Ha, we see one woman’s journey of self-discovery, ignited by a fractured friendship.
