Charles Serking è uno scrittore dedito a una vita disordinata, che cerca nell'abuso dell'alcool e nella poesia i rimedi alla sua congenita disperazione. Sembra trovare momentanea consolazione nella relazione con Cass, una prostituta alla deriva come lui, ma è solo un'illusione destinata a finire tragicamente. Serking resta solo, tutto deve ricominciare da capo... Marco Ferreri adatta cinque racconti di Bukowski. Autoemarginazione, violenza, rifiuto di ogni accomodamento, aspirazione a un'impossibile pace interiore: questo l'universo che Ferreri affronta imponendo come sempre la sua personalità, anche se non sempre esibendo il genio degli anni migliori.

Late at Night: Voices of Ordinary Madness / 2013

‘You have no choice about being here, you’ll have no choice about when you leave’ proclaims a woman in Xiaolu Guo’s latest film, a documentary about the personal and physical journeys of the people of London’s East End. Herself an immigrant to the area, Guo’s sensitive character studies hint at an affinity with the push and pull of feelings of alienation, a theme she has previously explored as a filmmaker (She a Chinese, LFF 2009) and novelist (A Concise Chinese-English Dictionary for Lovers). This empathy is also apparent in her playful stylistic approach that layers Warhol-esque news reports, archival material and a soundtrack including Linton Kwesi Johnson and Fela Kuti, to comment on the human cost of capitalism. The resulting film is both a penetrating portrait of a frenetic place that feels deeply authentic, and a powerful piece of protest film.
