Agony

2016

  |  

93 minutes
A young woman is murdered, her body dismembered, its parts dumped across Vienna. Two suspects emerge without a clear motive: a law student who sells concessions part-time at a movie theatre, and an image-obsessed rapper/boxer; each is trapped in his expectations, set against the abstraction of a violent postmodern news-scape. One of them goes berserk and becomes a killer. Based on a true story.
