Thriller in abstract painting style

In fact, the film is a bit of a mystery, and the film tells an uncomplicated thriller story. The male protagonist was ordered to take their CEO back to New York at a spa in Switzerland for the world's richest, only to find that the top rich here are reluctant to leave as if they had been brainwashed, and the male protagonist was also forced to stay in the spa due to a car accident injury. center. With the male protagonist's in-depth investigation in this isolated nursing home, more shocking truths come to the surface. It turned out that the mysterious dean of the sanatorium turned out to be a former baron who had lived for more than 200 years, and the only purpose of these rich people staying in the sanatorium after being brainwashed was to be squeezed into a small bottle of nutrient solution to maintain the longevity of the dean and the staff. The heroine in the film, the mysterious girl, is actually the daughter of the baron who lived more than 100 years old and was born in incest with his own sister in order to maintain a pure bloodline.
The pictures in this film are very unique. It is no exaggeration to say that some shots can even be directly displayed in the gallery as postmodern paintings. This abstract painting-like shot does add a lot of weird colors to the film. Moreover, the cool tones of the whole film and the combination of fantasy and reality make the film look very serious and depressing. Several leading actors gave excellent performances, especially the heroine Mia Goss. The gothic temperament is really suitable for a thriller. For a thriller, the film's duration of nearly 2 and a half hours is not short, but the solid story makes the rhythm of the film slow but very endearing, and it will not make people feel the urge to fast-forward. The victims in the film are all super-rich people who were once all-powerful and famous. In the end, it is very ironic that these people are squeezed into "human dryness", and the male protagonist in the film is the director of a major Wall Street investment bank. But he was powerless to fight back, and he also made fun of these mighty financial elites. Although this film is not a horror film, some scenes such as the electric drill drilling teeth and the male protagonist being inserted into the esophagus and feeding eels may still make some people uncomfortable, so please be mentally prepared before watching.
