Il Complottista

About This Movie

Il Complottista is an intriguing blend of comedy and drama, transporting us to the suburbs of Milan during the onset of the pandemic. Mirko, our protagonist, is a no-vax, flat earther with some pretty strong convictions. The film captures his disorientation as lockdown forces him to confront both the world outside and his own beliefs. The pacing feels reflective, almost meditative at times, allowing the viewer to digest the absurdities of his situation. The performances are raw and authentic, often blending humor with moments of genuine introspection. Themes of isolation and the fragility of belief systems are explored with a light touch, making it distinctive in its approach. There's a certain charm in how everyday life is depicted, yet it carries a weight that lingers.
