Loosely based on a case study by Havelock Ellis of a lesbian who murders her lover, Parolé is an experimental film which examines the construction of sexuality through the discourses of medicine and psychology. These institutions have historically linked sexual identity to criminal and pathological behaviour while naturalizing this construct through "scientific" studies.
