Featured review
This is a sort of documentary about various people in their basements. I say sort of because some of this movie is obviously staged. Plus in the end credits are listings for Foley (Sound Effects) artists & editors so some sound effects were added after filming.
There are no real run-of-the-mill basements & people here. All are in Austria. One is an adult woman that plays with a doll as if it's a real baby. Another is a man that's basement is full of Nazi & Hitler memorabilia he's very proud of and is also a musician and has his bandmates over. Two of those people were fired from their jobs after appearing in this film. Another man has a gun range and teaches a gun class. Then there are several separate Master/Mistress & Slave basements & participant. They show some of their play. There are a few scenes that are just people standing/sitting still in their basements, usually looking like deer in the headlights.
Yes a lot but not all is interesting. Yes a lot but not all is weird. But some things are a bit too much. Not everyone will like this movie. Not everyone will hate it. So I can neither recommend or dissuade from watching.
