On Thursday, April 25, the film premiered in cinemas in Argentina. Against everyone (“Boy Kills World”): the young Boy (Bill Skarsgård, the actor of Item) must face the crazed matriarch of a corrupt post-apocalyptic dynasty that left him orphaned, deaf and voiceless.
In Against everyone It is said that Boy lived a tragic childhood, but an enigmatic shaman will turn him into an instrument of revenge and release him into his distant dystopia on the eve of the annual massacre of dissidents. Trying to find his place, Boy joins a resistance group and has intense discussions with the ghost of his rebellious younger sister.
Against everyone presents creative staging for its countless fight sequences: it is a film for those who share the codes of absurdity it poses and the nods to other works in the video game universe.
A bloody movie with video game aesthetics.
It is about a man who seeks to settle scores against a totalitarian government made up of tyrants. The narrative, with certain surprises, proposes a reflection on the construction of memory on the part of those who control the stories. And there is blood at every moment.
