Top Posters of 2010: #6. Amer
This poster kicks ass. It’s crazy, it’s erotic, it’s scary, it’s retro. It’s a Valentine’s card to “Giallo” films and it’s fans. Amer means “bitter” and as Bruno Forzani told us, “Bitter suggests the taste, one of the five senses. Our way of driving the narration is sensitive, visceral. As the theme is the discovery of the body, of desire, of sensuality, it was important for us to try to communicate the sensations of the main character (Ana) to the audience, to try to make the audience understand the story as if it was in the character’s skin.”
