   Feb 17, 2023 · Or a point. “Pacifiction” takes place in yet another dark, exotic, and artificial in-between place, which is also the point. The distant hum of the surf, the woozy throb of the club’s bass, and the flickering silhouettes cast by disco ball lighting. Some Hawaiian shirts and bronzed skin; some irresolute dialogue about secret alliances and ...

   Apr 18, 2023 · Pacifiction – the working title was Bora Bora – is a discursive and deliberately hazy tropical fantasia centred on De Roller (Benoît Magimel), the French-appointed high commissioner of an island in the South Pacific, who learns the hard way that his ‘authority’ is a mirage in a postcolonial world of conspiracies and political manoeuvring.

   Is 'pacifiction' a 'didactic' film?

   • Serra is sensitive to these concerns without ever making “Pacifiction” a “didactic film,” which he’s said he finds too many films today to be. To be didactic ultimately means to hammer home one view and embrace being one thing, and “Pacifiction” embodies too many overlapping concerns and identities to be considered as such.

   Is 'pacifiction' a Baroque movie?

   • “Pacifiction,” the latest baroque provocation from writer/director Albert Serra, follows—but not too close!—the smirking De Roller ( Benoît Magimel ), a smooth-talking French official who is more slippery—and possibly dangerous?—than he appears. De Roller greases a lot of wheels and maintains a lot of static, mutually beneficial relationships.
