Nature abounds with systems wherein the competition of surface and edge energies shape the structure and serve the functionality. Lipoprotein particles, bacterial biofilms, and dorsal mesentery membrane, are among examples of such systems, all sharing a similar mechanical behaviour: the bending and stretching resistance of a bio-membrane competes with flexural and torsional resistance of a bounding filament. \\As a first step for investigating such systems, we study soap films spanning elastic, inextensible loops. The loop is modeled as a closed Kirchhoff elastic rod resistant to bending and twisting, while the soap film is modeled as a two-dimensional surface endowed with constant surface tension, the boundary of which coincides with the c...
