The Outsider

2020 · 10 min

A claustrophobic, slow-burning character study of repressed desire and self-destruction, with an unflinching gaze and a quietly menacing atmosphere.

Overview: Sito hates the countryside, the smell of slurry and his village life, but he has never left the rural area where he was born, nor does it seem that the possibility of doing so can end his discomfort. Attracted by a strong desire towards the male erotic, Sito lives immersed in a crusade to destroy the stimuli that connect him with those repressed feelings that he has latent inside him. From these circumstances, violence appears uncontrollably.
