Irreversible at BFI Southbank
Overview
Backwards-narrrative arthouse shocker from the young French master of existential filmmaking. Two men, Marcus (Cassell) and Pierre (Dupontel) are desperate for vengeance - enough to attack clients in Rectum, a gay S&M joint. Marcus is looking for a man known as El Tenia 'the tapeworm' (Prestia) When he thinks he's found him, a fight ensues and Marcus has his arm broken. Pierre steps in and beats the man to a pulp with a fire extinguisher. But what event drove them to this violence?
