Review of Water Drops on Burning Rocks (2000) by Mapizarro — 14 Oct 2013
François Ozon's filmography is one of the most controversial and acclaimed European filmographies. Ozon has a singular vision about relationships, sexuality and social community. In "Water Drops on Burning Rocks" Ozon made real a unpublished play by Rainer Werner Fassbinder.
Fassbinder was one of the best European directors of 20th century and this movie is a tale about cruelty and domination that could be in a relationship. I like that characters are bisexual. The film goes beyond of sexual orientation and to show the power of domination.
An ironic critique of dominant sexism still alive in nowadays.
