Delicatessen
Guest Meier is every restaurant owner's worst nightmare. He behaves like Croesus when dealing with the staff. With his snobby and abusive conduct, Meier even manages to expel other guests from the restaurant. Meier sharply criticizes his ordered food after just a single bite and demands a completely new meal "on the house." The restaurant's chefs Harald and Tim feel their professional honor is grossly insulted. Together with waiter Peter, they discuss how to put this "problematic guest" in his place, working themselves meanwhile into a rage. Will diplomacy triumph over barbarous brutality or is violence sometimes indeed a solution? And what does an instant photo camera have to do with all this?

"Possession Of Mara" (2025) Indie Film Review-A genre-bending, abuse-addressing effort that defies mainstream normalcy
Dramatic Horror!!! Wait, what?? Did you say "dramatic horror"?? IS there such a thing?? I mean, TRULY. Well, if San Francisco-based, Pakistani-born independent filmmaker Dr. Hassan Zee and this film critic have anything to say about it, there IS such a beast as experienced through the director's newest feature film set to officially debut October 4th in the City by the Bay. Folks, indie film will always be a bastion of experimentation and originality, and this film for me fits that bill.
