122 min

Szifrón’s zesty black comedy weaves together six short tales of individuals on the verge of a complete meltdown. Frustrated by petty bureaucracy, incensed by a cheating husband, emboldened by extreme road rage or sickened by a desperately unfair and corrupt society, various individuals decide to have their revenge in the most public, aggressive and satisfying way possible. A deliciously dark, shocking, unpredictable and hilarious compendium, Wild Tales depicts how modern life and human relationships can drive us mad, behave out of character or seek retribution.

Winner of Audience Award San Sebastián International Film Festival and Sarajevo Film Festival.

Nominated for Best Foreign Language Film Oscar 2015.
