40. The face of another (1966)


Country: Japan
Directed by Hiroshi Teshigahara

A man ,whom his face gets disfigured by an accident, goes out of the social isolation wearing a miraculous mask that  gives to him a new face :  as a new person now is trying  to seduce his own wife. The movie , having undoubtedly an interesting plot, not always successfully , arises a lot of questions about existence , identity and social roles : the facade that all of us show to outside, seems that devours our inner selves to the point that we are always just the masc that we wear
