AICN Poster Debut! 13 TZAMETI!!
Hi, everyone. "Moriarty" here with some Rumblings From The Lab...
Okay, this one I haven’t heard anything about, really, but I like the poster a lot, and check out this synopsis:
20-year-old Sebastien (Georges Babluani) leads an impoverished life with his immigrant family, constantly struggling to find the money for their next meal. While hired to repair the roof of a neighbor’s house, Sebastien fortuitously overhears a conversation about an impending letter the neighbor expects which appears to offer a quick and easy solution to his money troubles. When the neighbor unexpectedly dies, Sebastien intercepts the letter. Following the instructions inside, he becomes embroiled in a wild goose chase, taking on a false identity and following a series of clues which lead him ever closer to his impending fate. Soon Sebastien finds himself in the heart of the French countryside and face to face with a ring of clandestine gamblers. He has become an unwilling participant in a sophisticated high-stakes underground tournament of Russian roulette. Directed by newcomer Gela Babluani, 13 Tzameti (pronounced: ‘zah-meddy’) is a nerve-racking thriller, where white-collar barbarism rules and an unfortunate young man is transformed into Contestant #13 and left with nothing, save his luck. Winner of the Prize for Best First Feature at the Venice International Film Festival and the Grand Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival.

Smirking sang-froid? I love smirking sang-froid! Count me in!
