"Leave my girl out of it. If you want to fight, just tell me when and where." Screen Daily has released an early festival promo trailer for an Indonesian film called Vengeance is Mine, All Others Pay Cash. Which is a damn cool title for a unique film like this. It's premiering at the Locarno Film Festival which just kicked off this week, hence the new trailer to build up some buzz - before it heads to TIFF later this fall. In a society ruled by machismo, a hibernating "bird" becomes a serious matter. In a life of brutality, the sleeping bird is an allegory for a peaceful and serene life, even when the whole world tries desperately to rouse it. Marthino Lio stars as Ajo Kawir, a compulsive fighter who discovers he's impotent. Everything changes when he falls in love. The director's quote: "Why do we waste time obsessing over impotence, while violence still keeps occurring all around us? We need to chill on the macho culture." Also starring Ladya Cheryl and Reza Rahadian. This has some style along with a fresh story about machoism in Indonesia. Check it out. ›››
