Entertaiment is a film that suggests humor, but perversely and deliberately refuses to provoke any laughter. It’s grotesque, minimalist and defiantly desolate, in the way of Beckett.
Entertainment encompasses all forms of play, from infantile ‘fun’ to the sophisticated social interaction that children engage in with dolls, pets and group games; to adult activities such as watching performances or engaging in sports, music and other sedentary activities. It is a cultural concept that can be adapted to any scale: for an individual choosing a private entertainment; for a wedding, banquet or other celebration; or for a global audience with a shared experience such as a sporting event or a religious festival.
