Incident by a Bank (2010)

£0.00

(Händelse vid bank)


Country: SV
Technical: col 12m
Director: Ruben Östlund
Cast: Bahador Foladi, Ramtin Parvaneh, Leif Edlund

Synopsis:

Two bystanders gawp at and film a pair of youths on a motorbike as the latter hold up a bank, having first got the wrong building. Meanwhile buses packed with football fans pass by along the street, and another man tentatively intervenes.

Review:

A single take reconstruction of an actual incident, with zooms and pans to pick out action. Östlund comments implicitly on the voyeuristic impulse which overrides any attempt to thwart the commission of a crime. (Only one of the men is apprehended.)
