Involuntary

Human folly in it´s rich variety has a brisk, chilly airing in Involuntary, an inventive ensemble piece from first-time Swedish director-writer Ruben Ostlund. Using a sprawling cast comprising largely of unknowns and non-professionals – with one notable exception – Ostlund paints a coolly non-judgmental comic picture of the appalling things people do to each other, and to themselves, when weak will,
peer pressure and plain foolishness come into play. – – The digitally shot film is framed with consistent inventiveness and rigour.
