The Exterminating Angel

The Exterminating Angel Video Mercury

The guests to an upper-middle class gathering find impossible to abandon the room where the reunion took place. They are simply terrified of leaving. Fear will drive them to a forced life in common which, as the time passes, becomes tinged with violence and dramatism. Buñuel, who was not fond of crowds, could not conceive society as good, but as a farce of the good. This tale attempts to unmask the instincts and hidden intentions by the image of civility exposing the selfishness and miscommunication level latent in every society.

12A. In Spanish with English subtitles. Free admission.
