Historias lamentables (Unfortunate stories)
Directed by Javier Fesser. Dark Comedy. Dur: 2hr 6mins.
Spanish dark comedy film by Javier Fesser that tells four interconnected, surreal stories about miserable people in humorous, often tragic situations, mirroring the structure of works like Pulp Fiction or Wild Tales. The film’s interconnected narratives explore the human condition with sharp, satirical humor, following characters such as a young man about to inherit a business, a man obsessed with order, a young immigrant, and a businessman battling addiction, leading to darkly comedic and emotionally resonant twists.
