BAD LUCK BANGING or LOONY PORN Will be Released In UK Cinemas On 26 November 2021.
LUCK BANGING or LOONY PORN won the prestigious Golden Bear at this year’s 71st Berlin International Film Festival and is the latest film from Romanian writer/director Radu Jude (The Happiest Girl in the World).
Shot in Romania in 2020, it incorporates the ongoing pandemic into the storyline, with the cast wearing masks on screen throughout. Featuring an explicit opening sequence that clearly sets out the film’s themes from the start, BAD LUCK BANGING or LOONY PORN is a fearless and sometimes outrageous film that is bound to cause a stir.
Synopsis: A video goes viral. It shows a man and a woman having sex while wearing masks. The woman is, nevertheless, identified. Too bad she is a teacher and supposed to be a role model. And this, moreover, in a (post-socialist but ultimately any) society that is about to get lost in a social network discourse of would-be healing squeaky-clean attitudes, pseudo-political knowing-it-all, sanctimonious chauvinism and grotesque conspiracy theories. Everyone has an opinion. The debate turns into a tribunal – about consensual sex, pornography and more.
