Haunting, philosophical horror for these modern times about what one aspiring actress is willing to give up in exchange for making her dreams come true—a groundbreaking collaboration from the author of Foe and I'm Thinking of Ending Things and the filmmaker of Our Father, the Devil and the upcoming erotic drama Fleur.
Missy Djalo has spent years trying to mold herself into a real working actor. Someone who can become anyone. Someone who belongs in the spotlight. But so far, her life has been an endless loop of failed auditions, of sleepless nights running monologues in the seedy apartment she can barely afford, of constantly comparing herself to the prettier, richer, better-connected actresses that she’s passed over for again and again.
She knows her struggles will be worth it once she makes it big. Then, she’ll laugh in the face of everyone who ever doubted her. Like her mother, who never understood Missy’s passion.
When Missy is invited to audition for a lucrative commercial, it feels like a light at the end of the tunnel. The kind of paycheck and exposure that could change everything for her. But as the audition stretches on, the boundaries between reality and fantasy become increasingly blurred, and Missy begins to wonder: What will she have to sacrifice to reach her dreams?
Brimming with unease until the very last page, A New Kind of Clean is a surreal, minimalist fable about memory, alienation, ambition, and reality, from two critically acclaimed masters of their craft.
