A very fucked short from Marian Dora. Basically, a man is sexually attracted to his daughter (?). One day he watches her while she is taking a piss and he becomes very... aroused (yeeeeaaaaah). Anyways, later on he begins to attack her, lets just say from there things become very nasty and explicit.
I don't exactly know how to feel about this. Basically, It is a lot of nasty shit for like 10 minutes. Some of the music is nice, but honestly I cannot recommend it to just anyone. Regardless, it is definitely Dora.
Big thanks to Rozatel for sending me this.

Nach meinem Verständnis sollten Filme kein ‚Entertainment‘ sein im klassischen Sinne sondern eher eine Herausforderung oder eine Belastungsprobe und genau das beweist Marian Dora immer wieder sehr eindrucksvoll, selbst in seinen Kurzfilmen.
Nihilistisch, kurz und auf den Punkt gebracht kann auch dieses Werk „begeistern“.
Sperrig und verstörend… Alles richtig gemacht für die kurze Laufzeit! Volle Punktzahl! -
Many aesthetic and lighting choices that I loved, and it was even pretty well done, but there's a missing...something that I can't really define. It's short, simple, minimal, but it fails at it's delivery at times I feel. Dora's style is there, but I highly doubt it's up there with his greatest work, and I'm just getting into his filmography.
EDIT: Ok, on a second watch, in a less stressful and more relaxed space, Provokation was quite effective. I still stand by my statements above, but I just appreciate it more upon a second watch for some reason. Not something great, but still worth while in a small mostly unknown short film type of way.

Disturbed and explicit short meditating on terminal loneliness, seen through the unspecified relationship of its two leads. Made with a fair amount of skill, so the unpleasantness isn't entirely off-putting, but it's still a grim, nasty trip. (It also does little do dispel the stereotype of the German preoccupation of scat.) Buttgereit-lite, if you will.

This movie ends with the text "For Melanie".
Something tells me that Melanie blocked Dora after watching this.

Die Tristesse des Alltags wird zur sexuellen Gewalt, zum Mord und darüber hinaus. Die Annahme, dass der Perverse seine eigene Tochter vergewaltigt und tötet ist nicht eindeutig klar und da Marian Dora fast nichts zu den Hintergründen seiner Kunst sagt, müssen wir damit klar kommen. Eigentlich ist der Kurzfilm so oder so ein fieser Gewaltexzess der Güteklasse DorA.
Nur für Filmfreunde mit einem abseitigem Geschmack, also für Fans des Meisters Dora, eine Empfehlung. -

A Marian Dora short found on the Tetrovideo DVD of MELANCHOLIE DER ENGEL that sees a man who becomes infatuated with what one assumes is his daughter. Emotionally, physically and sexually abusing her before killing her...and he's not even finished there!
Very f**ked up and nasty.5/10
