• Plot: Back Against the Wall is a startling piece of work, perhaps a calling card for a new cult hero. essentially an exploration of intersexual power relationships, the films glacial shift from mundanity to horror is consummately achieved: the dialogue is sparse, the monochrome film stock pockmarked and meal-textured, the camera almost invariably fixed in one of a scant few locations, the score composed of wavering tape loops, enviromental sound, prepared piano and claustrophobic electronic emissions.it all adds up to something entirely fresh- a sickeningly disturbing example of the power of minimalism, the subconscious, and the unseen.certain to divide opinion as starkly as possible, unmissable for aficianados of "other" cinema.
