Maradona by Kusturica (2008)
Maradona the man and legend
Story of the legendary footballer. The director himself narrates the different shades of the man behind the figure, especially the political one. Towards the end we see two street guitarists singing a song about him.. surprisingly the star becomes one among them, joins the duo spreading his respect towards mankind to the viewer's heart and the film becomes iconic.
Exil (2020)
Alone in the crowd
Think about a situation where a standing ovation becomes a humiliation. Here our man goes through many similar instances with a deep suspicious heart which repeatedly questions his Albanian origin. From the first scene itself his musophobia is well narrated and the place where he works is having long narrow dim lighted corridors. There are shots in an elevator which clearly depicts his thoughts in a crowd. Though the story has a long time span we always see the characters in same attires (breaking a basic concept ! ). Everywhere he feels the loneliness and discrimination. Towards the end mysteries have been solved in a different angle. But in the last shot he is still waiting for entry to a hall.
