SYNOPSIS

A documentary film that is the portrait of a film critic seen by a director. Where contemporary cinema manipulates reality by hiding itself, this experiment manifests its opposite in an explicit and evident way. The critic was asked to be willing to travel to the city of Bergamo and participate in a film experiment lasting 70 minutes: tasting 2 kg of oysters while simultaneously drinking 2 bottles of wine, and answering 15 questions of a cultural nature and 15 solicitations of a private and personal nature. The outcome is a ruinous game in which the sense of filming and the fragility of a human being merge in a melancholy testament.
