As professor of philosophy Louis Godbout is no stranger to the
theme of existentialist dread that becomes an unsetteling
untercurrent of his third feature. The Parking Spot examines how a
small disturbance in everyday life can errode a person's sense of
social and self. On site at the Shanghai Internationl Film Festival
where his surreal psychological drama has its world premiere in the
main competition, the Canadian director-writer sat down for an
interview with Lidanoir about the pressure of social
self-assertation, fragil masculinity, and the influence of Goya's
Dark Paintings on his film.
