Claude Faraldo’s absurdist ode to anarchy indulges in some gleeful taboo-breaking. A working man finds relief from daily dehumanization by converting his apartment into a primitive cave and rejecting every social convention, starting with his relationship to his own sister. The film has no screenplay credit and no dialogue, just grunts, gibberish and screams of the Primal persuasion. Michel Piccoli is brilliant as the nonverbal caveman-revolutionary. His rebellion proves to be contagious — women find his uncouth liberation irresistible. On Blu-ray from Radiance Films.
