Matteo GarroneCast

Credits
Written by: Ugo Chiti
Plot
A film in competition at Cannes that won David di Donatello awards for best film and best director.
Sinekatalog’s take
Matteo Garrone's bleak drama of a gentle dog groomer drawn into violence is tense and tragic. Marcello Fonte won Best Actor at Cannes, and the film's decaying coastal setting is unforgettable.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
