Part of the Portland International Film Festival; winner of the Grand Prize at the Cannes Film Festival. Italian director Matteo Garrone intended to make
Reality as a comedy but as the filming went on, the story developed in a much darker way then he intended. Garrone examines and exposes the uglier side of celebrity culture and the pursuit of fame by following one man's obsessive quest to gain a spot on an Italian reality TV show. A satirical, ironic but ultimately sentimental and thoughtful film. Also showing 2/14 at Regal Lloyd Center.
