Adventures in psychotica...
The Three Trials uses a ground-breaking approach incorporating surreal story-telling, music videos, computer enhanced abstraction, and fetishistic sex to tell the twisted fairy tale of Catherine, a nun with a unique form of narcolepsy, and her adventures in search of devotion.

Catherine witnesses the sexual encounter of the Father of her convent and the Mother Superior. For her “crime†of being a witness, she is taken to a gothic cathedral (portrayed as a monstrous boiler room in a fire-destroyed building) and is made to confess, under the shady and powerful hands of “The Fixer†and “The Right Arm Of God“. She dreams of living in a lovely castle, and inhabits that dream, until she learns of a plan to sacrifice her because she has become an object of sexual desire for the rulers of the castle. With the help of her friend, Julia, Catherine escapes by sewing herself into the skin of the fox in the fox hunt. Surrounding the castle, in the forest, she encounters a furry beast who saves her from the hunters and takes her to live with him in a cave. As they fall in love, he becomes more human, but as he evolves, finally into a plastic surgeon, he becomes more cruel, but she insists on even more cruel behavior. It remains unclear as to whether these events are part of Catherine’s own fantasy world, or, in fact, actually happening. Catherine is treated to small kindnesses and formal romance in between acts of masochistic perversion. In a desperate attempt to completely disappear into her lover, she demands for him to take away her free will and to live in a state of complete devotion. At the conclusion, Catherine is taken to “the theater†where that devotion is put to the ultimate test in what becomes a ritual of transformation.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
