A Slice Of Life
"Satisfyingly surreal."

This Slovenian drama is certainly an oddity.

It begins with a typical dose of eastern European realism – as a jealous wife (Barbara Zefran) confronts her husband (Robert Prebil) and morphs into something much more weird, when, on heading out to do some building work on a house, hubbie finds something strange living in the wall.

Director Martin Turk uses his camera well to make something pretty ordinary – though I won’t reveal what here – into something almost unbearably sinister. The film has a slow build and the fact that it is initially so grittily realistic makes the genre twist all the more creepy.

Satisfyingly surreal.
