PODCAST | Matt Micucci interviews director Karl Lemieux, who talks about their new film Shambles of the 73rd Venice Film Festival.
SHAMBLES Caught stealing drugs from the wrong people, 27 year old Vincent is in trouble and on the run from the local mob. Fleeing to the backwoods, Vincent unexpectedly reconnects with his brother Michel with whom he’d cut ties many years ago. As he tries to maintain the semblance of a normal life hanging out with friends and playing in his band, Vincent witnesses his brother’s own turbulent downward spiral. Maudite poutine draws us into a darkly dystopian rural world, a place in which violence pervades the everyday but humanity still manages to shine through the cracks.
At the 22nd edition of the Giornate degli Autori, the GdA Director's Award goes to Inside Amir by Amir Azizi, a "meditation on everyday life" that intertwines memory and mourning.
