Directed by Pablo Larrain. Starring Alfredo Castro 16 cert ***

Disturbing Chilean drama following a lunatic as he prepares for a competition to find the nation’s most convincing John Travolta impersonator.

Castro emits troubling anti-charisma as the protagonist, but the thrust of the allegory – the film is set in the Pinochet era – is obscure. The DVD features a public interview with Castro.
