The Untamed - La región salvaje
Amat Escalante
This film has no current screenings
“Amat Escalante’s The Untamed variously dazzled, horrified, shocked, and, in the case of some very nervous viewers, tickled the Venice Film Festival when it played in competition,” Jonathan Romney wrote in a dispatch from Venice last fall. Escalante’s mindbending country tale injects an intrusive otherworldly presence into a love triangle between a married man, his wife, and his brother-in-law. Desire seems to bend reality itself, as the no-holds-barred director of Heli and Sangre unleashes a film of sexual hunger with science fiction elements.
Please note: this screening will take place in the Elinor Bunin Munroe Film Center.
