Masahista (2005) - The Masseur



Masahista (2005) - The Masseur

U Blogu sam već postavio Dva Filipinska filma, Bathhouse (2005) i The Man in the Lighthouse (Lalake sa Parola, Ang (2007)
Kako je produkcija iz ove zemlje zaista obimna, predstavljam vam još jedan film Masahista, snimljen 2005. godine.
Inače film je dobio nagrade na mnogim festivalima , između ostalih u Locarno 2005, (Golden Leopard), Toronto 2005, Vancouver 2005, Chicago 2005, Vienna 2005, Thessaloniki 2005...

Dvadesetogodišnji Iliac radi kao maser u jednom lokalu gdje se uz masažu uglavnom podrazumijeva sex. Dok masira klijente Iliac sluša njihove životne priče , tješi ih kad zatreba i ukoliko plate sve to začini seksom.
Tipična prostitucija na dalekoistočni način.
Ljubaznost i spremnost da se udovolji klijentu je sastavni dio posla.
Kada Ilijacu umre otac, porodica ga zove da se vrati kući i da se prihvati novih obaveza koje se od njega očekuju. Hladna majka, nervozna cura, neodgovorni brat učine mu se manje prijatnim nego ono što doživljava i osijeća na poslu....
Film ima dva audio kanala, Filipinski i Španski pa izaberrite sami. Uz fajl koji sam priložio nalazi se dobar titl na engleskom.

English:

Following the death of his father and a chance meeting with an abusive romance novelist, a masseur working in a gay massage parlor struggles to make sense of his unfulfilling relationships while simultaneously assisting his mother in preparing his father for burial. Twenty-year-old Iliac (Coco Martin) may not be the best masseur in the parlor, but when he catches the eye of a cold and calculated romance novelist looking for a cheap thrill, the icy indifference displayed by his paying lover does little more to warm the spirits than his sexually charged but emotionally distant girlfriend. Despite the resentment Iliac feels towards his late father for abandoning the family and embarking on a suicidal alcohol binge, the lovelorn youth nevertheless makes the journey home to be there for his grieving mother in her time of need. As he prepares his father for burial and his mind wanders back to the previous night's encounter at the massage parlor, Iliac's increasingly complex love life disturbingly begins to mirror his troubled family life. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
