Where have the discrete charms of the bourgeoisie gone? In their enigmatically titled ensemble piece "Chuck Norris Doesn't Sleep, He Waits", Danai Anesiadou, Hans Bryssinck and Diederik Peeters take turns performing the cinematic chores of decadence, basing their taut, absurdist skits on filmic representation of ennui-stricken jet set life. A string of loops held together by just as many loopholes, "Chuck Norris" stages our guileless protagonists in a web of archaic codes and Byzantine rituals - eventually plunging them into the abyss of old school Hammer horror. Highly recommended scenes of quotidian paralysis. (Quelle: http://www.margaritaproduction.be) / jst
