马里奥(伊夫·蒙当 Yves Montand 饰)是一个游手好闲的混混,在那个小镇里,所有的人都在找工作,可是没有一个人有正式的工作。就是这样一个贫穷的地方,每天还有无数人前来淘金,落魄的商人吉奥(查尔斯·文恩 Charles Vanel 饰)就是其中的一员。同时,命不 久矣的鲁奇(Folco Lulli 饰)和嚣张跋扈的班巴(彼得·范·埃克 Peter van Eyck 饰)也出现在了当地鱼龙混杂的酒吧里,他们的目标只有一个,那就是赚钱。 此时,500公里外的S•O•C石油公司的油井燃起了熊熊大火,为了灭火,必须有人驾驶着装有十吨硝化甘油的卡车开往此地,而对于公司的雇工来说,这无疑是自杀的举动,因为只要有任何一点点的颠簸和受热,十吨硝化甘油就将化为十吨威力无比的炸弹。无良的老板打起了混混们的主意,因为即使他们死了,也不会有工会来追究责任。马里奥、吉奥、班巴和鲁奇获得了这个危险的任务,并被允诺每人将有2000美金的酬劳。就这样,为了金钱,一行人将性命捏在手里,驶上了危险与恐惧并存的不归路。
In this smart and erotic psychological thriller from alumni filmmaker Nate Dushku, we follow bird watcher Kristian Brooks as he invades a nude queer campground in New Hampshire, manipulating others to serve his dark fetish while blurring the line between protagonist and antagonist. For fans of Stranger By the Lake, BIRDER captivates and challenges its audience, bringing into conversation questions of consent and overt sexuality. Actor Michael Emery gives a complex and enigmatic lead performance that is equal parts sexy and terrifying, and the naturalistic setting and minimalistic filmmaking style only further serve this sophisticated and wildly adventurous narrative.
