A级优等生下海记

　　一起连环凶杀案吸引了警长索恩（大卫·莫瑞瑟 David Morrissey 饰）的注意，这位穷凶极恶的凶手手中已经有了三条人命，然而，第四名受害者却侥幸逃过一死。警方和民众都认为这是凶手的百密一疏造就的结果。然而，可怕的是，没过多久，索恩就发现，犯错的不是凶手，而恰恰是自己，因为尽管保住了一命，但这位幸存者却无法提供任何情报。　　几起在同一时间、使用同一手法在两个不同地点作案的谋杀案让警长索恩十分警觉，随着时间的推移，迷雾渐渐拨开，他发现，自己所要面对的并非仅仅一名嗜血残暴的杀人魔王，而是两个在暗地里相互勾结、相互鼓励的反社会分子。

Ayşe, Ali, Mehmet and Zeynep are middle-class millennials struggling to make ends meet in Istanbul. Either still living with their parents or hardly getting by without help from their families, they are all beset by similar woes: money crunch, joblessness, social isolation. In view of the world’s horrors that Zeynep enumerates in her diary entries, these are minor problems, ‘slight disasters’, but they are all-consuming, at least to the extent of making them cry in the still of the night. 　　However, Umut Subasi’s first feature, Almost Entirely a Slight Disaster, is not a melodrama. With an appealingly light touch, it diagnoses the malaise of a generation that has run up against a dead end, one whose future prospects are indistinguishable from a game of chance. This is a world where astrology, the lottery and online personality tests compete with visa and job applications as life-shaping elements. 　　Fittingly, the film is structured around chance and coincidence, with its handful of characters encountering each other in every permutation, as though there were no world outside this small social bubble. With self-aware, frontal framing that pins characters to their surroundings and a counterintuitive musical score that turns pathos into humour, Subasi offers a social-media movie without social media, one whose characters are united in their double lives and frustrated desires. 　　源自：https://iffr.com/en/iffr/2023/films/almost-entirely-a-slight-disaster
