2002, Palm Springs, CA: an amazing Richard Neutra house is bulldozed by an individual who just bought it $2.5 million. Built in 1962, this "modernist jewel" sited on the green of a spectacular golf course in the middle of the desert, was designed to house an outstanding modern and contemporary art collection. Drawing on Neutra's interest in psychoanalysis and on rumors about the buyer’s personal vendetta, the film is an inquiry into our desire to protect and destroy beauty. Echoing Melanie Klein’s psychoanalytical theory, the house embodies the good breast protecting and nurturing creativity, while the buyer becomes the envious and destructive bad breast.
