Psychological comedy.
A sequence of four (in the television version –
five) independent stories with their independent
characters, forming a coherent narrative.
In its form the film is like a theatre performance
with a final bow taken by all the participants.
Long-forgotten “un-splintered” monologues
allow the actors to put on show their acting
skills, without hiding them behind special
effects and dynamical montage. Unlike
anything, this is original dramatic art. The
film tries to drive the spectator into frenzy.
It is a protest that is vital in an era of total
crisis, a cry from the heart which paradoxically
gives us hope that this is not yet the end,
but only a crack in the system, a liberation
from stereotypes, templates and chains.
