Based on the controversial play La Ronde, which examined sexual morals in the late nineteenth century, Hello Again follows ten nameless characters as they pair up in ten different scenes depicting sexual pleasure and/or despair throughout the twentieth century. One character from each scene moves on to the next, seemingly dumping his or her old partner in favor of new prey. A haunting and sensual tale that shines a glaring light on the inescapable pull of love and sex. Learn More
