Agony
Music Video DistributorsA young woman is murdered, her body dismembered, its parts dumped across Vienna. Two suspects emerge without a clear motive: Christian, a law student who sells concessions part-time at a movie theatre, and Alex, an image-obsessed rapper/boxer. Each young man is trapped in his expectations, set against the abstraction of a violent postmodern news-scape. One of them goes berserk and becomes a killer. Amounting to much more than a slasher movie, Agony is a split-narrative character study, comparing two distinct male millennial personalities whose stories do not overlap, save for the fact that they each live in Vienna - if two distinct version of Vienna. Poignant questions of machismo and sexual identity are deftly brought to light. Based on the true story of a shocking and inexplicable murder.
