Description: They say that inside every man is hiding a little idiot. At least, so says a group of young people living in a small happy community, but in a completely empty country house. To idle existence may seem boring, members of companies release their hidden idiots out, pretending to be mentally ill. They competently represent downs in various public places, confusing people around them to infinity.

After all, everything can be an idiot: smashing dishes at a restaurant, make fascinating excursions into the women’s shower naked, and even engage in group sex with their colleagues on the “idiocy.” But there comes a day when the game ceases to be a relaxing and fun …

Review: “Idioterne” Trier is the same as the “Dreamers” Bertolucci as paintings tell of the same – an event known as the “May 1968.” The difference in the manner of presentation is clearly reflected in the title of the work, but the foundation, again, is the same. The main slogan of the film Bertolucci, remember: “Together – everything is possible. Together – nothing is forbidden. ” Is not it, in common with what is happening in the “idiot”?

In the spring of 1968 in the economically prosperous French Riots started, the West has gone into a moral impasse. Youth came to the conclusion that the older generation is cheating on her, that vice of bourgeois values ​​that guarantee the stability and well-being, boring, limited and false. Students began to rebel against their fathers, the whole system. The most famous slogans of the historical events – “Block is prohibited”, “liberation of humanity is universal, or it will not,” “Live, do not waste time (on the job), rejoice without obstacles”, “Alcohol kills. LSD “- all of them, in one form or another, have been reflected in the film Trier.

France represents an excellent house, or rather a mansion in which expensive floors above rubbed every day and which now housed our idiots. What we see in the picture? Splendor in the mud. It is convenient to hide from liability, it justifies the imperfection of the world. Heroes play in the psycho-sexual games, taking advantage of the benefits that are created by those who do not want to be. Exposed caviar, tobacco pipe, the same expensive wines in the “Dreamers.” Everything is possible, as long as parents are not home. The protagonist, a young ideologue Stoffer, with the help of friends originally protested against the sale of the house of his uncle. Similarly, only in a different form, and students protested the University of Paris against the “corruption” innocent France, led to the young leader. Another form, the essence is: a method of protest – children, not mature. We know from history that the dictatorship of the proletariat did not happen, as there was an ideological and organizational unity among the protesters. Instead of creating a revolutionary party – autonomous commune, as a new form of struggle – the mass nonviolent action, up to the complete loss of the system, in the same communities. In the end, all these sexy, rock revolution were quite dangerous for her. Remember, in the end the film’s heroes mocks words Stoffer, of which might give the impression that they have supposedly “rock band”? And while rebelling themselves suggested system to combat them – Carnivalization happening, anesthesia. Later, their reaction to coming out of control “reality” too childish, inexperienced. Easier to throw a bottle and break the glass, to protest, no matter for whom and against whom, importantly to create for themselves the illusion that you’re logged in, and live a real life, than to try to understand and find a solution. And why, after all, as they said, for the future idiots. Similarly, the bottle breaks and random idiot box at home in “Dreamers.” Indicative of an episode in the pool when the protection of the provocative “purity” Nana gets an idiot, taking advantage of the “disabled child”. Factor child works and border situations where the father takes away Josephine when Stauffer in “idiot” and Isabelle in “Dreamers” yelling “Fascists!” Because they want to story continued. And she leaves. And here and there, the heroes of their mouths shut just quiet. For common sense does not want to “fascism.” Moreover, he does not want to hurt others, as shown in the bottle game at Trier.
