Tapeworm

After a bloody bowel movement in the woods, a middle-aged hypochondriac interrupts a stoner couple having sex by a river and shares his fear of having gotten a tapeworm. This feature debut by Fabian Velasco and Milos Mitrovic is an awkward comedy that breaks with all expectations and focuses on the gross, boring, pointless, and sad sides of being human - and it does so without grandeur or exaggeration. "Velasco and Mitrovic strike just the right tone with Tapeworm, a gritty and awkward comedy that turns life’s most ordinary and embarrassing moments into captivating vignettes."
