Zama

This is a funny, smart, fever dream of a movie about Spanish colonialism. It is a biting, vicious satire, and I laughed rather a lot, but I can't say I am sure where it took us, really. Zama's visuals are stunning, and I think it hits its mark. I'm just not sure it's aiming as seriously as I wish it did. Still, I enjoyed the hell out of it.
