Chevalier
A richly comic reflection on the male ego
Friday 22 – Thursday 28 July
Running time: 1h45m
The third feature from Attenberg director Athina Rachel Tsangari is a richly comic reflection on the male ego. Six men are on an expensive yachting holiday in the Aegean. They range in age and social status from an elegant sixtysomething GP to a 30-year-old doormat who still lives with his mother. They all agree to a test of their masculinity that grows increasingly petty and rancorous as they go from assembling flatpack furniture to comparing the size of their erections. Finding the measure of a man is the basis of a funny, provocative and profound comedy.
