Black Balls

2009 · 82 min Comedy
6.6 / 10 · TMDB

Alex Klein is a bankrupt real estate executive whose life is on a collision course. Not only do the market and his career look like a Trabant from before the fall of the Berlin Wall, but he has a wife who is thriving in success; a family whose habits are driving him insane; clients with bad taste and too much money. Not to mention 14-year-old baristas who think they know the difference between highland coffee beans, picked by virgins at midnight and the coffee from the local supermarket. So there's a lot getting on his nerves, so much so, that one day, when things become real serious, he can only weather the storm in his own repelling way.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs its comedy from the friction between societal expectations and personal collapse, relying on the absurdity of modern irritants to fuel its humor. It explores the tipping point where petty annoyances catalyze a full-blown existential rebellion.

Those who tire of polished, feel-good comedies will find a cathartic release in this darkly funny portrait of a man at war with triviality. What lingers after the credits is a smirk of recognition at life's relentless absurdities. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Anders Matthesen
