SELF-CENTRIC (AKA EUCENTRICO)

Cinemavixion Review

Marcos de Castro's 2010 film, "Self-Centric" (also known as "Eucéntrico"), presents a convoluted inheritance drama steeped in familial animosity and murder. The premise follows three estranged cousins summoned to their uncle's estate, bound by a peculiar will stipulating a year's cohabitation to inherit his fortune. The tension escalates with the arrival of a woman accused of poisoning her husband, adding another layer of suspicion to the already volatile household. As if the internal strife wasn't enough, it's revealed that one of the cousins, a purported member of a secret society, is orchestrating the escalating misfortunes. The narrative promises an unexpected conclusion, hinting at a complex web of deceit and manipulation within the confines of the ancestral home. While the cast details are not provided, the director's setup suggests a psychological thriller where trust is a scarce commodity and survival hinges on uncovering the truth amidst a year of forced proximity and deadly intentions.
