Film Italy, 1h 33
In just 3 attribute films, the Italian twins Fabio and Damiano D’Innocenzo have imposed their universe with a style as bizarre as it is disturbing on the competition scene. Oscillating concerning horror thriller and fantasy, multiplying the aesthetically pleasing cinematic references, their movies offer you an uncompromising exploration of the psyche of our Western societies into what is most terrifying in their eyes. That is the aspiration of the middle course to a bourgeois and consumerist joy, devoid of indicating and humanity, to the issue of generating its very own deviations.
Soon after the nihilistic sons of Heritage of Holiday seasons (Silver Bear for Best Screenplay in Berlin in 2020), decided to destroy the model of the great relatives in a suburban Rome suburb, is Massimo Sisti, an up-and-coming provincial dentist who appears to be to have the lifetime he always dreamed of. A spectacular architect’s property with a swimming pool, a substantial luxurious car or truck, a woman and two girls of evanescent magnificence who wait for him at household in the evening and satisfy all his wishes.

The look for for the identification of a dominant center-class male
This discovery is the beginning position of a progressive derailment of Massimo’s orderly lifestyle. Somewhat than liberating the prisoner, he prefers to preserve peaceful and, right after suspecting each and every member of his he entourage, he begins to issue the gray areas of his very own memory. Elio Germano, amazing in this job, then usually takes us into the disturbed and paranoid mind of his character, whose research is also that of his very own id. That of a dominant bourgeois male who unleashes his frustrations in outbursts of uncontrollable violence.
The staging is in tune with the hero’s condition of thoughts, not skimping on shut-ups and distorted images. If the filmmakers connect wonderful relevance to the areas – together with the outstanding Californian-wanting dentist’s dwelling – and the soundtrack, it highlights each action and ends up slipping into mannerism, incorporating, as if important, to the harmful atmosphere. and chilling of the film and its issue.
