Reality

Directed by Quentin Dupieux

Produced by Orange Sky, Realitism Films

201587 min7.1 / 10

A comedic, absurdist premise about a desperate filmmaker chasing an impossible goal within a tight deadline, blending satire of the film industry with surreal humor.

A wanna-be director is given 48 hours by a producer to find the best groan of pain, worthy of an Oscar, as the only condition to back his film.
