Belgian filmmaking duo Helene Cattet and Bruno Forzani’s latest cinematic exploit is an orgasmic visual melange that’ll twerk your ocular nerves and frizzle your brain.
Drawing heavily on the works of Maurice Binder, Mario Bava, and Dario Argento, the two unleash a feverish dreamscape that is mesmerizingly confounding; the story is like a jigsaw puzzle strewn out on a table wherein trying to piece it all together is half the fun.
Italian film legend Fabio Testi delivers an understated performance as an enigmatic elder gentleman whose reality becomes increasingly fragmented over the course of the film.
Lush, dense, hypnotic, and never dull, it’s a literal garde manger of sensory overload.
