時空發生在1978年智利政治動盪時期。勞爾為了模仿約翰屈伏塔在《週末夜狂熱》中的舞林高手角色,暢言英文台詞,盡情扭腰擺動,甚至不惜冷血殺人,只為了貼近夢想生活。偏執狂的性格,著魔般的執著,透過看似恣意的手持拍攝,幽微反映主角內心的混沌顛狂。極度諷刺的結局,在在教人不勝唏噓。
Santiago de Chile, 1978. In the midst of the tough social context of Pinochet’s dictatorship, Raúl Peralta, a man in his fifties, is obsessed with the idea of impersonating Tony Manero, John Travolta’s character in Saturday Night Fever. When the national television announces a Tony Manero impersonating contest, he knows it’s an opportunity for him to achieve his dream: being a successful showbiz star. It is a story about loss, identity and obsession in the recent Chilean history.
