When Leo, violent and rash, finds out that his girlfriend Louise is pregnant, the prospect of starting a family and the commitment this involves, sparks off a smouldering hatred of himself, perhaps also because the relationship has no future. He becomes more and more aggressive, but is incapable of giving voice to his anger. Only the violence he so passionately detests speaks a sufficiently clear but tragic language.
Bleeder
Instruktør: Nicolas Winding Refn
‘Bleeder’ beskriver Leos og Louises kærlighedsforhold, der krakelerer dramatisk, da Louise bliver gravid. Begivenheden påvirker Leos aggresive selvhad og er begyndelsen til enden på deres forhold, der revner med et brag, da Leo eksploderer i vold. Louises meget beskyttende bror tvinges til at hævne sig grusomt på Leo.
