The case of The Dining Tablethe feature film by Caye Casas, is a clear example that one is not always a prophet in one's homeland because after its tremendous success at festivals, it had not had a decent distribution in our country until it arrived on Filmin a few months ago.
The film received praise from people like Stephen King who even said of it that: “I don't think you've ever, not once in your life, seen a film as black as this one. It's horrible and horribly funny. It's the darkest dream of the Coen Brothers,” said the American writer.
Now The Dining Table It will have a Turkish remake that is being directed by Can Evrenol, responsible for the brutal “Baskin” that we discovered a decade ago at the Sitges Festival.
The film tells the misadventure of Mary and Jesus, a couple in crisis who have just had a baby. He wants to buy a really tacky little table for the dining room. Despite her reluctance, the table ends up at home and its acquisition ends up becoming the worst decision of their lives. The film stars David Pareja (“Amigo”) and Estefanía de los Santos (“May God Forgive Us”) and features the participation of the late Itziar Castro.
