Agalmatophilia (pronounced A-GAL-MATTO-PHILIA, is a paraphilia involving sexual attraction to a statue, doll, mannequin) is the story of Guy Talbot, an isolated workaholic who seeks a secretary to help manage his life and business. He hires his first applicant, Iesha Stayput, who oddly enough appears to be a living, breathing mannequin. She aides him in business affairs, slowly but surely, but her professionalism quickly becomes secondary to Guy’s ulterior motives… Complicating matters is his vivacious client, Veronique, who swoons over Guy, perhaps as a curiosity, frustrated about his lack of interest in her and obvious growing obsession with his new co-worker, who may or may not be little more than a twisted fantasy, forced into fruition. Can Guy find happiness with a moving, speaking mannequin, or will he finally fall for Veronique, who may have an odd obsession of her own?

 

Jared Masters stars in his feature film debut in a leading role. Co-starring Brittany Ballantyne as Veronique and the voice of Iesha Stayput, the lovely new secretary Guy Talbot (Jared Masters) hires and falls in love with. He won’t let the fact that she’s a mannequin ruin the future he sees with her. This new dark comedy is a ambitious and controversial experiment in the human psyche. Can a grown man truly love an inanimate semi-lifelike human figure?

 

 

WHAT CRITICS ARE SAYING…

 

“Now this is most certainly a very unusual film, an extremely weird, twisted romance between a man and a shop window mannequin, done very much in a way as if it was a very natural thing, with a minimum of special effects, and without any fantasy or horror motives or even vastly simplified psychology tagged on – and especially for these reasons it works, it just tells its story, doesn’t lose steam in long-winded explanations or fancy effects, just lets us see the world through Guy’s and later also Veronique’s eyes – but with an extra shot of irony (rather than moronic humour). If you’re into the slightly bizarre, you’ll get lots of enjoyment out of this.”

Since the dawn of time, man has had much trouble resisting the urge to assimilate and ascertain the opposite sex.

Michelangelo, with his hammer he chiseled, “Eros.” Thousands of miles away in the South Pacific, pirates looted their way past Scylla and Charybdis in awe.

For perhaps like Michelangelo, she was the only essence of Venus, or, simply the most lovely.

The Sultan of Sensationalism: Jared Masters, opens the door, baring it all, exposing (in exquisite detail) the deepest nooks and crannies of his own, personal agalmatophiliac issues.

It will be Masters’ first leading role, in his thirteenth feature film, Agalmatophilia, as the lonely, psychotic desk clerk, Guy Talbot.

If your heart can stand the electric shock: the bruised, brooding illusion of the nouveau cinematic movement. Revolutionized by the pair under the name:

ANTI – CINEMA.

What is ANTI – CINEMA? Where can I get it? Does it fit in a size seven shoe?

Set in the bleak tomorrow’s terror, future-retro-istic, soon becoming plastic civilization.

ANTI – CINEMA takes everything you know about motion pictures and throws it off the rooftop onto the boulevard. It will tarnish every silver screen from here to Timbuktu. ANTI – CINEMA, the revelation, the epiphany, the answer to today’s HD, HI-FI, mass exploitation, brain-dead society, is brought to you live from Los Angeles by Hollywood’s only hope, Jared Masters.

Bridging the gap between fantasy and reality, Agalmatophilia, is closing in on the end of production.

Expect nothing less from the Prince of Horror Erotica in Agalmatophilia. Raw and punchy. Dryly humorous. Fun and exciting. An exposé on the life of a man with a certain je-ne-sais-quoi-pas, extreme definite taste, and a lust for love.

Iesha and Veronique are part of maniac Guy Talbot’s moonstruck love triangle.

Explore the possibilities in 2018’s wildest screen wonder Agalmatophilia.
