一群迈阿密警察在一间废弃的藏身屋发现数百万现钞，彼此之间的信任开始瓦解。随着外部人士得知充公金额如此可观，一切变得疑点重重，到底还剩下什么可以相信？又有谁依然值得信赖？

　　THE CONFINES is a claustrophobic thriller that follows a troubled young woman who, in a last-ditch effort at getting her life together, takes a job working nights as a security guard at an abandoned luxury apartment building. Stuck with a brusque rent-a-cop as her partner, she tries to not let her mind play tricks on her while she patrols the empty halls. But as the night progresses strange things begin to happen - and she realizes it may not all be in her head.

　　史蒂芬（瑞恩·菲利普）与莎伦（蕾切尔·李费佛）来到波多黎各，打算接走通过中介收养的海地小女孩妮娜。他们在旅馆结识了穿着防风衣，头发乱糟糟的本杰明（库萨克）。六万元的费用付出手，妮娜却突然失踪，领养中介的工作人员不翼而飞，网站也无法打开……　　当地警察告诉他们，两人是中了钓鱼诈骗的圈套，以收养孩子为诱饵，拿到收养费后就把孩子带走，再去寻找下一个受害人。然而夫妇俩的厄运还没完，本杰明似乎是看准了两人是条大鱼，把他们监禁起来，要榨光他们所有的积蓄。

Ayşe, Ali, Mehmet and Zeynep are middle-class millennials struggling to make ends meet in Istanbul. Either still living with their parents or hardly getting by without help from their families, they are all beset by similar woes: money crunch, joblessness, social isolation. In view of the world’s horrors that Zeynep enumerates in her diary entries, these are minor problems, ‘slight disasters’, but they are all-consuming, at least to the extent of making them cry in the still of the night. 　　However, Umut Subasi’s first feature, Almost Entirely a Slight Disaster, is not a melodrama. With an appealingly light touch, it diagnoses the malaise of a generation that has run up against a dead end, one whose future prospects are indistinguishable from a game of chance. This is a world where astrology, the lottery and online personality tests compete with visa and job applications as life-shaping elements. 　　Fittingly, the film is structured around chance and coincidence, with its handful of characters encountering each other in every permutation, as though there were no world outside this small social bubble. With self-aware, frontal framing that pins characters to their surroundings and a counterintuitive musical score that turns pathos into humour, Subasi offers a social-media movie without social media, one whose characters are united in their double lives and frustrated desires. 　　源自：https://iffr.com/en/iffr/2023/films/almost-entirely-a-slight-disaster
