Tricks of a Woman 90min
“Tricks of a Woman” is a Pygmalion-like story that explores
the contrast between the world of high fashion modeling
and that of the day-to-day routine of a normal New
England fishing milieu. Dessi is a shy foreigner who works
at a fish market. She’s resigned herself to spending her
life chopping fish. On the other end of town, Rex is a high
fashion photographer who’s bored with the superficial
women he beds every night. He also has quite a thing for
gambling, and because of this he’s in debt to his rival
photographer, Albert. Albert makes him a bet – he’ll forgive
Rex all the money he owes him, on one condition: Rex will
turn a girl of Albert’s choosing into a high fashion model.
When Albert sees Dessi he insists – this is the girl Rex
should change. With a mix of uncertainty and bravado, Rex
takes the challenge. Rex takes Dessi under his wings, and
teaches her all of the tricks he knows about how to be a
beautiful woman. Rex finds that in the course of doing this,
he falls in love with Dessi, but worries what will happen if
she ever learns the truth. “Tricks of a Woman” is a story of
a woman who goes from an ugly duckling to a beautiful
swan.
