“So fresh, so funny, so charming, it amazes the heart.” – Judith CristPolly doesn’t need much. She’s perfectly content to spend her days people-watching, snapping photos and transforming her tiny apartment into a make-shift darkroom. And daydreaming. Boy, does she love dreaming. Unfortunately that doesn’t pay the bills, so she finds work via a temp agency as an assistant. Also unfortunately, she’s not good at that and has bounced from position to position. But, for whatever reason, her new boss at an art gallery has taken a shine to her and offers her a full time gig. She quickly puts her boss on a pedestal and becomes completely enamored with the art scene. Polly decides to anonymously submit some of her own photographs to the curator in hopes of winning her admiration, only to witness her ripping her work to shreds. Now disenchanted, Polly also finds herself in over her head when she unintentionally uncovers an unsavory secret at the gallery that could ruin her boss.
An offbeat and heartfelt first feature from filmmaker Patricia Rozema, I’VE HEARD THE MERMAIDS SINGING captures the highs and lows of finding your footing in adulthood with dreamy surrealistic touches and a delightfully whimsical flair.
