Overview
Aram is a wearied accountant with an unbearably dull existence. With a nagging wife who berates him for not being assertive enough, and a measly paycheck, he quietly suffers while awaiting a long-deserved promotion. But there’s more to Aram than his mild-mannered demeanor lets on: he has been secretly devising a scheme to finally get what he feels he is owed. One day he asserts his power menacingly when he kidnaps a schoolgirl and keeps her tied up in an abandoned warehouse. What seems like the perfect plan soon unravels into his worst nightmare, and his carefully constructed scheme comes crashing down piece by bloody piece.

Viewing Notes
Movie #3 on Day One!
Easily one of my favorites of the fest. Great to see Adrián García Bogliano return to his own production after Late Phases, which I’m not crazy about. This movie has more in common with his Here Comes the Devil. Dark and violent with shady characters. I really dig this movie. One I look forward to revisiting.
Also nice to see Bogliano again and inquire about a Penumbra blu-ray. He’s a good guy and genuinely appreciative. I hope he makes another movie this year that gets its premiere at the festival.
