6.4 / 10 – IMDB

“An ambitious art piece that defies conventional structure and narrative, Abbruzzese allows his long-awaited passion project to be driven by mood and atmosphere rather than any semblance of a traditional plot.”

“Minimal in dialogue but maximalist in its hypnotically striking style, the impact of Giacomo Abbruzzese’s challenging thriller Disco Boy hinges on the expressive central performance from Franz Rogowski. “
