Why Hollywood?
For me, Hollywood is a word that represents a world, and a way of seeing the world. Hollywood is characterised by an obsession for success, a fear of failure, the nightmare of our bodies, of beauty and ugliness. It is a word that has conditioned our past, and I am therefore writing it as a way to exorcise it and eliminate it from the world to come. Tommaso Fermariello
Synopsis
Hollywood is the story of a massacre. Two youngsters burst into a provincial disco and begin to shoot; their purpose is to kill all the attractive people inside. It is the vendetta of the ugly against the beautiful. Inside the disco, we follow the account of one of the terrorists, and of a young man who is there with his girlfriend. Their stories are crossed with the voice of a young woman. She is from the same town and has become a famous Hollywood actress, and here she tells of her particular panic attack.
