Storia
Adah and Aaron, both recovering addicts struggling with sobriety, meet in their psychoanalyst's waiting room. They soon fall in love and have sex. Upon discovering they share an anal fetish, they relapse on poppers together. This relapse unleashes a series of chaotic events: they conjure a demon, Adah's brother is killed, and both of them transform into literal 'assholes' with their faces turning into buttocks. In response to this drastic change, Adah's parents stage a reality show intervention in hopes of getting the couple sober again.
Riassunto
Assholes (2017), directed by Peter Vack, is a dark comedy-drama that explores the lives of two recovering addicts navigating love, relapse, and the surreal consequences. The film follows Adah and Aaron, whose relationship begins innocuously in their analyst's waiting room but spirals into chaos as they struggle with sobriety together. Set in New York City, it offers a unique blend of romance, horror, and reality TV tropes to comment on addiction, relapse, and the lengths people go to for intervention.
