59. Gomorrah

Want to see how I can shoot?

Gomorrah. 5 little interwoven stories. Mainstream audiences may be disappointed that it does not have the flair of Goodfellas, nor as stylistic as City of God. It's a film that is very hard to watch (digital video-like) and unpretty but perhaps is the message the director wants to drive with his images; a gritty but realistic potrayal of the underbelly, sans the glamourization of Hollywood underworld. Winner of the Grand Prix in Cannes 2008.
