The Monsters

  • Log in or register to post comments

Dive into a series of vignettes that depict the everyday life of characters trapped in the clamor of a society that seems to have lost its way. In this social satire set in Italy, we follow a variety of protagonists who, throughout different episodes, reflect the hypocrisy, selfishness, and masks that people wear in their daily lives. From a man who poses as a hero in his community to a woman who pretends to be an exemplary mother, each character is a distorted reflection of reality, highlighting the disturbing truths that underlie their interactions.

The structure of the film resembles a mosaic, with moments of dark comedy that soon turn into absurd and often unsettling situations. The witty dialogues and surreal circumstances will take you from nervous laughter to moments of deep reflection, as the characters struggle to find meaning in their lives in a world where appearances often outweigh authenticity.

Through an inventive and provocative narrative, the film becomes a mirror that forces us to question our own humanity and the "masks" we all wear. With an ironic tone that feels timeless, it explores identity and morality in a transforming Italy, leaving the audience wondering what monsters truly inhabit each of us.
