　　規(guī)模龐大幾乎盤踞全球的跨國銀行IBBC在這個錢權主宰的社會里簡直無所不能，它不僅操控著各國經濟，牽制著政府的決策，甚至參與洗錢、販賣軍火、勒索綁架等各種黑道行動，它就像一只大章魚將觸角伸向黑夜的每個角落。國際刑警路易斯·塞林格（克里夫·歐文 Clive Owen 飾）目睹同事因企圖泄露銀行機密而遭遇暗殺，他決意受命前往柏林徹查IBBC洗錢內幕，得益于另一位正義者副檢察官埃莉諾·惠特曼（娜奧米·沃茨 Naomi Watts 飾）的同行協(xié)助，兩人很快發(fā)現(xiàn)了跨國銀行更多鮮為人知的非法活動，甚至包括資助恐怖分子和發(fā)動戰(zhàn)爭。兩人決心揭露跨國銀行的真實面目，然而，無所不知的IBBC早已注意到這兩只螻蟻，殺手隨即派到，路易斯和埃莉諾最終能否贏得這場螳臂當車的生死周璇？

Ay?e, Ali, Mehmet and Zeynep are middle-class millennials struggling to make ends meet in Istanbul. Either still living with their parents or hardly getting by without help from their families, they are all beset by similar woes: money crunch, joblessness, social isolation. In view of the world’s horrors that Zeynep enumerates in her diary entries, these are minor problems, ‘slight disasters’, but they are all-consuming, at least to the extent of making them cry in the still of the night. 　　However, Umut Subasi’s first feature, Almost Entirely a Slight Disaster, is not a melodrama. With an appealingly light touch, it diagnoses the malaise of a generation that has run up against a dead end, one whose future prospects are indistinguishable from a game of chance. This is a world where astrology, the lottery and online personality tests compete with visa and job applications as life-shaping elements. 　　Fittingly, the film is structured around chance and coincidence, with its handful of characters encountering each other in every permutation, as though there were no world outside this small social bubble. With self-aware, frontal framing that pins characters to their surroundings and a counterintuitive musical score that turns pathos into humour, Subasi offers a social-media movie without social media, one whose characters are united in their double lives and frustrated desires. 　　源自：https://iffr.com/en/iffr/2023/films/almost-entirely-a-slight-disaster
