Always a highlight of the EFG London Jazz Festival, Jazz Voice returns this year with a host of special guests and a celebration of some of the classic jazz scores written for the silver screen. English jazz trumpeter and composer Guy Barker is once again at the helm of this musical extravaganza, conducting a specially formed 45-piece orchestra, who take centre stage at London’s Royal Festival Hall. Hosted by Jumoké Fashola, this year’s guest performers include cellist and vocalist Ayanna Witter-Johnson, Kurdish singer Aynur, neo-soul and contemporary jazz singer Ego Ella May, vocalist and composer Georgia Cécile, singer Sachal Vasandani and saxophonist and spoken word artist Lakecia Benjamin.
Antoine and Marie form, apparently, a couple without history. But, Antoine, obsessed with the image of two young foreigners seen in the restaurant where he works, can no longer make love normally with his partner. And even when the latter, in desperation, agrees to allow herself to be sodomized, it is a complete failure. Ulcerated, Marie kicks Antoine out. While the latter, trained by a colleague, tries new adventures, each more delirious than the other, with dating girls, Marie confides in her friend Corinne who, soon, makes her discover lesbian pleasures. But Marie doesn't want to stop there and, despite Corinne's warnings, asks a producer to shoot a "test piece" in a porn movie
