Démons

2015 · 88 min

A claustrophobic chamber piece that slowly tightens like a vise, letting polite conversation curdle into cruelty you can't look away from.

Overview: A married couple lives in a state of mutual loathing, contemplating divorce until they invite their younger neighbours over for a drink. In that moment, the happy young couple is dragged into the bitter resentment and psychological warfare of the older pair.
How it feels: Dark, tense, cynical and melancholic. Slow-burning and demanding.
About: Betrayal, obsession, isolation, love
Content: Strong language. Mild violence and sexual content. No gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
