Undergods

Mums were always telling us
not to talk to strangers. Let alone invite them into our homes. Don’t do it
because things might end up awry. So far, director Chino Moya has mostly
dedicated his talent to shooting music videos; he is behind, for example, clips
for Years & Years or singer/songwriter St. Vincent. His feature film debut,
Undergods, is a sombre mosaic of several human fates that will lead the viewer
through various corners of dystopian Europe. The film comes across as a
confused, almost uncomfortably realistic dream from which you can’t wake up. Its
stiflingly familiar and, in many aspects, authentic atmosphere will pull you
in.
