The Treatment (2019) | Directed by Álvaro Carmona

A still from the short film THE TREATMENT.
4.5/5
Álvaro Carmona’s The Treatment is an outstanding social satire about vanity, narcissism, and our callous indifference to human life. The performances are all pitch perfect – there isn’t a false note in the cast. The film is hilarious, the comic timing is so precise – a ruthless commentary about the things society has come to value over life and a basic care and concern for others. It’s an absolute treat to watch, even as it makes us squirm with recognition.
