Benny's Video

110 minutes 1992 7.1

 

Benny is very interested in television and video and has some problems distinguishing between fiction and reality.

Strong contemporary drama about a young boy who is obsessed with the video image, who has replaced reality with self-created images on a TV screen. Outside a video store, he meets a young girl who he takes home. In his freezing boy's room, where the curtains are drawn and a video camera records the reality outside, he takes a slaughter gun and kills the girl, without any idea of ??the consequences of his action. His middle-class parents are shocked by the incident but protect their son at all costs.
