Playing a version of himself, the Chilean director teams with social media influencer Jordan Firstman on this existential farce about sex, suicide and the creative void.
. The Chilean director’s work, as always, is an acquired taste, but his no-frills, scrappy aesthetic is particularly well suited to this slippery shot of meta-misanthropy, graphic gay sex and mordant farce. The filmmaker plays a despondent version of himself, subsisting in Mexico City on ketamine and poppers, contemplating suicide until a chance encounter with a brash American influencer and professional party boy kind of derails his plans.
Raunchy, rude and frequently incisive in its targeting of both self-pitying artists and social media celebs, the film revisits many of the director’s customary fixations — eroticism, despair, class conflict, the fragility of life and the allure of death, all of it embroidered with a mischievous thread of absurdist humor.
