Relatos salvajes [Wild Tales]

This comic film from Argentina satirises the country’s corruption and complacency. Each story leads you through the protagonist’s increasing states of irk and agitation, building the pressure until they finally explode into riotous acts of violence and revenge. A model on a plane discovers a strange coincidence with other passengers on a flight; a waitress serves up just desserts to a cantankerous customer; an obnoxious driver triggers a series of road-rage incidents; a parking warden tows the car of a demolition expert one too many times; a wealthy businessman tries to cover up his spoilt son’s misdemeanours; and a bride takes revenge on her philandering groom. Deliciously humorous!
