Eva Collé is an Italian, born in 1992, now living in Berlin. She describes herself in the following key words: non-binary, Virgo, bisexual, autistic, sex worker, writer, musician, anarchist, feminist, drug addict. She is also a model, blogger and Instagrammer. A restless spirit, she regularly moves from one part of the city to another accompanied by her white cat. Eva remains elusive, and that is the point this film is making—identity is something that is constantly changing. Eva (a self-chosen name) is both strong and vulnerable, contemplative and impulsive. In the documentary, she reveals herself completely, yet many things about her still remain a mystery. We follow Eva in the varied activities of her daily life: at a photo shoot, in a hotel room with a client, in bed with a boyfriend, at the table with her family. Meanwhile, captions – questions and comments from her followers – are followed by her reactions. “I dedicate my life to show the world that one can pretend to be whoever they want,” she writes. Day after day, Eva is a living proof of this.
