About This Movie

So, it's one of those sizzling Fridays when the bank's AC gives up, leading to all sorts of chaos. The film takes us through a quirky neighborhood where Peter Pisa, a rather unassuming fishmonger, is entangled in a messy affair with Rita, a bank teller who dreams big but is stuck in her mundane life. There’s this oddball blend of comedy and thriller that keeps you guessing. I mean, it’s not your run-of-the-mill thriller; the pacing feels a bit off-kilter but in a good way. The performances have this raw energy—Peter's anxiety and Rita's ambition really shine through. You can see the practical effects trying to add to the heat of the day and the mounting tension, making it distinctive in its own right.

This film has had a bit of an elusive presence in the collector's scene, with only limited VHS releases from back in the day. It's not commonly found in online marketplaces, and the scarcity seems to have piqued interest among niche collectors who appreciate offbeat comedies with a twist. If you come across a copy, it's likely a conversation starter due to its peculiar premise and the blend of genres.
