Wild Tales
Relatos Salvajes | Damian Szifron
Six farcical sketches, progressing from black to very black humour, then turning even blacker, but still retaining its humour and sarcasm. “Man to man is an arrant wolf”, according to Hobbes’ reworking of the ancient Latin proverb. This film illustrates Hobbes’ adage in its many guises, with its fierce portrayal of spiralling aggression, absurd violence, thirst for vengeance. It is a joyous macabre free-for-all, a world inexorably returning to its state of nature. The major winner at the 2015 Goya Awards.
