Sixteen-year-old Alice was a good Catholic until an innocent AOL chat turned racy and she discovered masturbation.

The Film

Yes, God, Yes

Karen Maine | US | 77

After an innocent AOL chat turns racy, a Catholic teenager (Natalia Dyer) in the early ‘00s discovers masturbation and struggles to suppress her urges in the face of eternal damnation.

Performer

Sur Back

Sur Back is the experimental pop brainchild of former Florida ballerina, Caroline Sans. A producer at heart, Caroline marries layered combinations of guitars, vocals, and beats with string and brass instruments—producing a sound that’s equal parts whimsical and arresting. In live performance, she rounds out this synthesis with choreographed and improvised movements. Caroline draws the name of her moniker from a natural phenomenon described as "the green ray," first observed by Arctic explorer Sir George Back. The green ray is also said to be a philosophical phenomenon—a moment of epiphany where your thoughts, and the thoughts of those around you are perfectly understood—a struggle that plays a clear role throughout Caroline's tracks. "Sir" was changed to "Sur" to imply the Turkish translation of "sur"—"steer"— in hopes the music will "steer back" its listeners to epiphanies of their own.
