Queasy and compelling in equal measure, Paolo Sorrentino’s sprawling portrait of Silvio Berlusconi – played with oily charisma by the director’s regular leading man, Toni Servillo (The Great Beauty) – is presented in its feature-length international version.
It’s 2006. Berlusconi’s third government has fallen, and his marriage is also about to collapse. Before meeting the man himself, we’re introduced to Sergio and his unscrupulous partner Tamara. From southern Italy, the pair want to become part of Berlusconi’s closest circle. Enter Kira, a high-class hooker who encourages Sergio to rent a villa in Sardinia overlooking the former PM’s and fill it with scantily clad models fuelled by drugs and alcohol. It doesn’t take long before Berlusconi notices.
Tickets are available online through Ticketek, from the front desk at MTG or the box office at the Napier Municipal Theatre. Door sales will also be available at the MTG Century Theatre one hour prior to the screening.
Rating: R16 - Restricted to persons 16 years and over.
Presented by: New Zealand International Film Festival.
