Lady Pochoir
A sexy cocktail, a love letter to a city, feminist art to all.
Yv (Nadine Rennack) lives a divided life. By day, she’s a responsible bike courier, racing between pristine office towers and grey cement walls. But at night, she becomes Lady Pochoir, one woman on a solitary mission to beautify her dreary city. Stencils, spray paint, and a boost of adrenaline – that’s all Yv needs for a good night out. That is, until Lady Pochoir catches the eye of Lexi (Verena Zimmermann), an art publisher intent on capturing the city’s underground street art. When the straight-laced careerist accompanies free-spirited Yv on a late-night tagging spree, sparks begin to fly.
Yv’s life is about to become as big an adventure as her nighttime forays, with everything she’s dreamed of finally in reach. Now she only needs to stay one step ahead of Sascha (Vanessa Jung), the annoying policewoman who’s taken more interest in her than is strictly necessary…
