The Concert
A short film by Walerian Borowczyk. Ostensibly a film of a concert given by the round, unassuming Monsieur Kabal and his spiky, terrifying wife, it's actually a cover for their frequent attempts at causing each other extreme physical harm.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
Borowczyk constructs this short on the stark contrast between surface propriety and underlying violence, relying on minimalist animation to heighten the absurdity. It explores the dark undercurrents of a marital dynamic where mundane routine can erupt into surreal conflict at any moment.
What lingers after viewing is the shock of sudden tonal shifts from primness to brutality, and the aftertaste of a deeply dark, almost painful humor. This is a concert where the music is born from mutual destruction. — MovieFinder Editorial

With a strong coffee, braced for absurd and slightly unsettling humor.
