Hierba takes as its backdrop Édouard Manet’s painting “Le Déjeuner sur l’Herbe”, and constructs a reflection on desire, urges and even repressions. Four characters having lunch relaxed on the grass -evoking the painting- are the protagonists of Perrone’s story, who in the manner of a collage technique assembles images and sounds while totally ignoring words. As in silent films, gestures, looks and movements enhance situations, states and obsessions experienced by the characters in a film that is as playful as experimental.
