'Loss of Heat' reflects the reality of living with the "invisible" disability of epilepsy, using personal experience, medical, psychoanalytical and literary references, in a poetic interpretation constructed from disjointed fragments – elements whose very nature is one of duality and contrast. The film deals with the interplay of the emotive and physical, not just in the immediate terms of the illness, but across the boundaries of sexuality, desire, dependence, love, loss and life itself.
