The Consequences of Love (2004)

Directed by Paolo Sorrentino1h 40m2004

Lugano, Switzerland. Titta Di Girolamo is a discreet and sullen man who has been living for almost a decade in a modest hotel room, a prisoner of an atrocious routine, apparently without purpose. His past is a mystery, nobody knows what he does for a living, he answers indiscreet questions evasively. What secrets does this enigmatic man hide?

Our read: The Consequences of Love (2004) (2004) reads as a heavy, measured, grounded drama · thriller entry — measured in intensity, intimate in scope, cold in temperature, nihilistic in outlook, with a strong directorial signature.
