Toys, fantasy and the US immigration system: inside Julio Torres' debut film, Problemista

Man and woman holding painting, still from Problemista film by Julio Torres by .

A hellish Kafkaesque trawl through the US immigration system is given a fantastical twist in Julio Torres’ debut film, Problemista, the first he has written, directed and starred in, and now available on digital release. It is combined with a healthy dose of horror – the horror of being an art-world outcast, as is Tilda Swinton’s character, and the horror of failing to achieve your dreams and becoming lost in bureaucratic bedlam.
