13. Wild Tales
Director: Damian Szifron
Stars: Liliana Ackerman, Luis Manuel Altamirano Garcia, Alejandro Angelini
Synopsis: A story about love deception, the return of the past, a tragedy, or even the violence contained in an everyday detail, appear themselves to push them towards the abyss, into the undeniable pleasure of losing control.
Wild Tales is just a film you have to experience, preferably with a larger audience. It might be a bit weird to go to the cinema to watch six short films instead of a full feature length film. But as the selection is so consistently good, they all follow the same theme, and there's no reason to be bothered by it. Wild Tales is the most fun (yet tragic) foreign film of the year. — Rik Burnsting
