Oscar

Em 2022, Aneil Karia venceu um Academy Award por seu curta estrelado por Riz Ahmed. Agora, ele está criticando duramente candidatos parlamentares ao estilo Reform com a ajuda de Jack Lowden e uma plataforma online improvável. Alguns cineastas têm expectativas irreais para seu trabalho; Aneil Karia não é um deles. “Não sou iludido o suficiente para pensar que isso vá derrubar o governo”, diz ele sobre seu novo filme, Vote Gavin Lyle – mas nunca se sabe, pode ser que sim. Uma sátira engraçada, inteligente, soberbamente atuada, pequena mas perfeitamente formada, Vote Gavin Lyle é estrelado por Jack Lowden como um aspirante a candidato parlamentar ao estilo Reform para o distrito eleitoral fictício de Fletcham and Wold, no interior da Inglaterra. Com apenas 16 minutos de duração, o filme ataca impiedosamente a mentalidade de extrema-direita; não os bandidos de rua que agridem minorias e hasteiam bandeiras, mas os Farageistas mais astutos e de boa oratória que dominam a liderança da tendência. Sem querer revelar o desfecho final do filme, é justo dizer que existe um elemento de empatia, até mesmo simpatia, por seu personagem central. Karia diz: “Não acho interessante ou útil olhar para essas pessoas – políticos de extrema-direita, vereadores, candidatos em potencial, quem quer que seja – e apenas dizer o quanto eles são bastardos detestáveis. Acho que o que me impressiona neles é que são tão vulneráveis e assustados quanto o resto de nós. Continue lendo...
