MAN BITES DOG (1992)

Man Bites Dog portrays a serial killer, Benoit, through the light of a reporter, the eyes of the camera man, and the ears of the sound man who are making a documentary about Benoit's violent life. The story seems to be rather absurd as the audience views Benoit's random acts of violence. However, in between the violence the audience can meet Benoit's parents and friends while listening to his slanted life philosophy.  Nonetheless, the main point of the film remains, which is to figure out reasons for the violence.  At the end the audience is left with the notion of "why"?
