"Unveiling the Satirical Brilliance of 'Rotting in the Sun'"

TL;DR Summary
Sebastián Silva's satirical thriller "Rotting in the Sun" blurs the line between reality and illusion fueled by social media. The film explores the love-loathe connection between Silva and Instagram influencer Jordan Firstman, reflecting the fascination and irritation with the social media-driven, hedonistic lives. However, the movie loses focus and edge when it shifts to a showdown between Jordan and Sebastián's housekeeper, leaving the film's point murky.
