"Imagine the massage scene in EMMANUELLE 2 if Lars von Trier had challenged Brian Yuzna to remake it. Welcome to the world of Jeremiah Kipp.

CONTACT concerns sex, drugs and reunion. Specifically, it’s about a monstrously bad trip – and I use the term 'monstrous' advisedly. Kipp deals out some repellent imagery as Koreen (Zoë Daelman Chlanda)’s mind is opened not to the doors of perception but a tunnel of grotesquerie...The closing scene brings the narrative full circle, in a scenario that could best be described as Mike Leigh gone metaphysical. Kipp – a talented director with the nous to surround himself with equally talented collaborators – is steadily building a body of work that confirms him as filmmaker with a voice and confidence that are his own."
