Weekend

1967 · 104 min

A chaotic, surreal road trip that feels like a fever dream of consumerism and violence, both funny and disturbing.

Overview
A supposedly idyllic weekend trip to the countryside turns into a never-ending nightmare of traffic jams, revolution, cannibalism and murder as French bourgeois society starts to collapse under the weight of its own consumer preoccupations.
