Piano Teacher

This week I made it up to the library and borrowed "Piano Teacher" which I could remember I wanted to watch in cinema a couple of years ago. However it was absolutely worth to watch it finally.

The story is about a woman between her 30's and 40's who is a piano teacher in a music conservatorium. Despite of her age she still lives with her mother. They even share the same bedroom.

Her mother tries to control the woman's life completely. Thus she is not able to freely live out neither her interests nor her needs (...you know...physical needs which every human being has). Instead she sees herself forced to lie to her mother when she looks for a bit of privacy. For example when she wants to go to cinema (...a special cinema where you can watch kinky films).

This brings us to the next point that she has strange and in a way extreme violent fantasies about sexual pleasure and satisfaction.
Eventually by trying to put them into reality and experience them ,things go terribly wrong and she has to face the naked truth. The end is quite dramatical but also down-to-earth.

I don't want to tell more of the story here as everybody should experience this film himself. I just can say:

What a outrageous and disgusting but simulataniously GREAT film.

And I guess by mentioning strange sexual fantansies and cinemas showing kinky films I could at least attract some people to watch that film.
