Tensions rise when a couple stays at the home of a reclusive host, with the three entering an intimate battle to gain and reclaim territory.
"This Closeness might best be described as a film in the lineage of mumblecore. Directed by indie filmmaker Kit Zauhar (who has already garnered similar acclaim for Actual People), the film is about a young couple in crisis who, over a weekend, rent a room in the apartment of another lonely man, who becomes an unwilling witness to their lives and problems. It's a small and extremely intimate film, about three characters who enter into a negotiation over privacy, where intimacy becomes a weapon and spaces, as well as sound, turn into battlefields both emotional and erotic."
