Sexy Durga
New Directors/New Films 2017
March 15 - 26, 2017
Main competition winner at this year’s International Rotterdam Film Festival, this tense nocturnal thriller chronicles a long, bad trip taken by a young couple on the run.
Sasidharan’s third feature, main competition winner at this year’s International Rotterdam Film Festival, is a wildly tense nocturnal thriller with a razor-sharp political message. Late one night, Kabeer and Durga, a young couple on the run, are picked up by two strange men in a minivan who offer them a lift to a nearby train station. However, these men reveal themselves to be anything but benevolent, and so begins a long, claustrophobic drive that feels like Funny Games meets The Exterminating Angel. Sasidharan renders this bad trip with precision and an economy of style.
