Carl and Yaya, mismatched pair of models (she earns more than he, he is no longer perfect, the triangle of sadness between the eyebrows does not lie) are invited to a luxury cruise. On board the yacht is the famous “one percent”, immoral humanityarms dealers, exhibitionist and carefree influencers, photography of our obscene world tells us the moralizing director.

A storm, a gala dinner ended in the most tragic – and one would like to be disconcerting – of ways and a shipwreck overturn class relations. But no one is saved in the universe of the Swede who looks at Marco Ferreri and Luis Buñuel without ever approaching them, for the second time, after The Squarewinner of the Palme d’Or.

Not the captain who raves about Marxist maxims while his boat sinks, not the once invisible and now disputed proletarians. A film that has the grace of a Molotov cocktail and the love for the world of a serial killer.
