5º – The Celebration (Thomas Vinterberg, 1998)
A journey through the interior of a family in a complete state of ruins. A work that reveals how certain facts of the lives of each individual are often overshadowed by a social mask of normality. Here, everything within the exploited family is heading towards the worst in humanity. ‘The Celebration’ still presents a raw and necessary vision of the human psychological construct and its exacerbations. A masterpiece of Danish cinema and the best film of the career of the great filmmaker Thomas Vinterberg.
