Pussy Pumps Up (1979) [Short]

Australia (MIFF1980,Programme 16)

The cat-girl heroine, Pussy, finds herself dwarfed in a world of the big boys. Yet, through exercising her mind and body - (wit and grace), she can metamorphose effortlessly from one opposite to the next - be both the pussycat and the ringmaster. She can fuse the opposites, and then dissolve them, so that she finally exists unique, but alone. On one level, the film is a metaphor for love-making.
