Review of Piety

Piety (2022)
9/10
Weird Funny take on Human Fragility
26 July 2022
A dramatic alegory of human manipulation and pulsions. This movie contrats North Korea effect on people from idolatry to murdee and despair with a troubled Spanish family affair.

Suicide, murder, mothers and birth. Sickness and safety, comforr and failed liberty. The juxtapoaition of the two worlds and stories is innovative. It strikes both the dramatic chords and the humourous situations and dialog.

A macabre undertone with well-written material hoñds the viewer entranced, shoked, unsure.. A choice of decor and colours tell a story with intelligence and litlle condescendence. Beautiful and successful diligence.

A worthy effort from Spanish writer/director in one of many fine Argentinian co-production.
