Borderline - Relação Obsessiva

The movie starts out as a classic, slightly moralistic tale, of the dangers of infidelity and keeping secrets. The male protagonists find his life quickly unraveling after a brief affair with a one-night stand, and it is an unnerving look into how quickly what is taken for granted can disappear.

But as the movie progresses and the main characters motivations and personalities are unfolded, the story develops and becomes something much more interesting. It turns into an investigation of two tragic persons struggle to fit into the roles that are expected of them in terms of gender, career, behavior etc., and how their failure to do so have great ramifications for both them and their surroundings. It is not for the faint of heart, but it is well worth a watch if you are up for a very twisted love story that dares to ask some uncomfortable questions about the way we are expected to interact and behave.
