Sleep that doesn’t provide rest. Food that doesn’t nourish. Relationships that aren’t nurturing. Careers that aren’t fulfilling. Hypocrisy of status which barely hides the darker impulses that dehumanize this cast of characters: revenge, lust, greed, drunkenness, superstition, inability to see anyone outside of your circle as anyone other than their relationship to you. The ego of a toddler in an adult’s body. This oneiric & surrealistic journey into the soul of the bourgeoisie is a triumph. The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie is a must see.
