AMER
2010-12-27Shot in the style of 1970s Italian giallo (meaning “yellow”, which stems from the origin of the genre as a series of cheap paperback novels with trademark yellow covers) it also serves as a homage to the horror films of Dario Argento. Even the plot summary feels as if it was written on a hazed 70’s evening. Three key moments, all of them sensual, define Ana’s life. Her carnal search sways between reality and colored fantasies becoming more and more oppressive. A black laced hand prevents her from screaming. The wind lifts her dress and caresses her thighs. A razor blade brushes her skin, where will this chaotic and carnivorous journey leave her?
