It would appear the cinema of Gaspar Noé has made its influence felt through Mexico! I’ll say this: there’s something in this one to offend or repulse everyone. A brother and sister find an abandoned building in a city of ruins and decide to take shelter. The only problem is a severely deranged man (and I mean severely – what a performance by Diego Gamaliel) occupies the building and in order to stay they have to abide by his rules. What follows is an intense psychedelic trip of a movie – to say not for the faint of heart is an understatement. Newcoming director Emiliano Rocha Minter’s vision mostly works – just a little bit too much Gaspar Noé-like at times – but for a first time director, making such an intense, creative and twisted work is no small feat. See it if you can stomach it; you’ve been warned. I’ll leave you with the trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otYBglOyHtw
