The Parents' Room
Diego Marcon’s work has often marshalled a grand cinema effect (35mm cinematography, sumptuous sets, operatic performance poses) for the sake of a deconstructive practice closer to installation art. THE PARENTS’ ROOM is a condensed musical displaying many affinities with Carax’s ANNETTE: tragic events in a family setting, weirdly lulling song recitals, and above all an overall aura of the uncanny. Where do the various components of human bodies, angelic voices, prosthetic make-up, and CGI digital effects begin and end? Blackly funny and unsettling, it’s a jewel of discombobulated cinema.
