Incompresa (Misunderstood)

Aria is no one's favourite daughter - neither her father's, a narcissistic and selfish actor, nor her mother's (Charlotte Gainsbourg), a musician partial to cocaine. Not beautiful or feminine enough, too intellectual and neglected by her parents, she gets by thanks to her one and only friend. The two of them love each other so much that they wear the same haircut and go by the same name 'Ist' and 'Ist'. Punk icon Asia Argento leaves her mark on her 4th film - a striking and poignant work, partly autobiographic and with a haunting soundtrack put together by Justin Pearson, Gabe Serbian, Luke Henshaw and Brian Molko.
