alekpe Interruption is a film taking place in a theatre which scenography is an art installation. It's a masterpiece without any doubts. The film atmosphere is constantly built and viewer is getting more and more curious what is going to happen next. The more we watch the more anxious we get. But still we can't look away, because it's such a beautiful film. Cinematography, editing, sound, acting, every aspect of the film is just perfect. Central composition of shots, shots from audience perspective to suggest to viewer that he's in theatre in the film. So even if we leave the cinema, we would do it as part of the audience. To conclude - this film is intermediality and intertextuality piece of art. Every single aspect of it is built in a very specific and aware way. It's a intellectual, audiovisual, meaningful masterpiece, which shows how modern art can connect and develop different media into one brilliant modern work.

thalianikiforou One step close to a masterpiece. Brilliant, disturbing, fascinating, multi layered, brain orgasmic, harsh intellectual and at the same time a suspense and agony adventure film, that will blow your heart out. I saw it in Vilnius Film Festival and the whole audience was so passionate in the end, we did not let the director to go out of the room. As one said, this is a film that has to be seen more than once and you have to digest it first in order to speak about it. The film is a haunting virus, it controls your thoughts days after and you are forced to reconsider it again and again.I was left speechless. This film peels questions about the modern spectacle and humanity as a passive mass of peeping toms. It challenges us to think outside the box, outside the cube that is on the stage of the film. Life is a play and we are all part of it we are all guilty and we need the catharsis. There are some wonderful moments, including an awkwardly brilliant dance sequence in the end and the guy going to the toilet when everything around him just gets into chaos.Its raw and provocative, stylish and fearless, thought-provoking and unconventional,dedicated to split the public and find its place in the history of the cinema. Original and a stunning parable of life.The film has many unanswered questions and is open to so different interpretations. The director is to be applauded for being able to genuinely transform theater into cinema. This film still seems to have slipped under the radar of many people, its without question the find of this year for me.Interruption takes us into this world of inverted logic, wicked parts, and our search for identity. It leads us to a place where you can not distinguish truth and lie. Just like life! You can not miss it.

Gus Keane Interruption is about our society and our behavioral patterns as a species. It's about what is really happening. This film demonstrates a universal problem. We are all trapped. It is a film that raises all sorts of questions about the individual and the way he is forced to play a part in and it encapsulates these questions into a deceptively ancient tragedy plot. This film talks about the myths and lies we are told to maintain status quo and the appearance of stability and normality. It forces you to question the oddness and the parameters of your own existence. A life with roles unquestioned and unexplored leads to a stagnant swamp of disorientation. I can get if someone rejects it and does not get into this no mans world, it's not the most easy movie to watch, but I haven't been this pleasantly surprised in a long time. Saw this in the premiere and I believe most of the people there were absorbed by the screen and didn't want to see the film end. Intellectual, emotional, cruel, realistic and beautiful would be the words I would use to describe this picture. At first you don't really understand what's going on or where you're at, but soon find yourself submerged in this theater scene. This is definitely one of the most important indie films of the year; aside from the original and highly meaningful leveled story, the film if impeccably made with astounding performances. The lights in Venice turned on, the credits were running and everyone was quiet and searching for answers in others looks. Its best surprise that I've got in years. It is a hypnotic trip that displays brilliant originality and borderlines pure insanity. In my humble opinion, it is a film that should be watched by every single person, for the experience alone. Sadly, I'm almost certain that this film will never find a wide release, so, please do seek it out!!!

bbenett1 'Interruption' is by far the worst film screening at this year's 72nd Venice Film festival. As the movie begins, a man steps onto a theater stage announcing that 'tonight, the audience will make up the characters and story of the performance'. And yet, the film never settles on a choosing what story it wants to tell. A tour-de-force of slow rack focuses, painfully boring moments of silence, and quite awkward false endings. One after the other. It is arrogant in the way it thinks highly of itself- 'artsy' just for the sake of being artsy. It offers no real thoughts or new ideas, yet it demands two hours of the audience's time.I'd respect the film if it was trying to create unique experimental filmmaking. Unfortunately, it's nothing more than a cheap imitation of it. In the movie's final scene, the theater's audience claps loudly at the performers on stage, once the show is over. In the screening room, the lights go up, and the audience leaves in confused silence.
