The drama “Carnage”, the latest project from the director Roman Polanski has toured the film festivals in Venice and New York in September, will be released in U.S. cinemas on 16 December 2011, with a delay of three months to theaters in Italy, but the two trailers profound and humorous at the same time were launched by their producers from Sony Pictures Classics studios offered a relevant sample of what to expect from a film with only four characters, whose action takes place entirely static in an apartment which is rooted in delicious dialogue that link between actors Kate Winslet, Jodie Foster, Christoph Waltz and John C. Reilly.

Inspired by the play “God of Carnage” of Yasmine Reza, who is also the author of the screenplay with Roman Polanski, the film confronts two types of characters, wife Nancy and Alan Cowan (Kate Winslet and Christoph Waltz) part of the class exclusive to the rich with condescending attitude, living in a luxurious mansion in Manhattan and enjoy all the privileges that money can buy, while the wife Penelope and Michael Longstreet (Jodie Foster and John C. Reilly) are middle-class representatives of society, living in a modest apartment in Brooklyn and have decent jobs, but low wages.

The only thing they have in common the four adults is that their boys are of the same age and attend the same school, the reason why parents meet is a fight in the park which Zachary Cowan he took out two teeth with a stick from Ethan Longstreet. Polite conversation at the beginning of the meeting degenerates along the violent verbal conflicts, ironies and blaming acid on how poorly they have educated their kids, throwing some other serious allegations that highlight the cracks in their marriage.

As they lose control and raise their voices at each other, Penelope, Michael, Nancy and Alan shows that tolerances are hiding behind apparent racial prejudice, homophobia and misogyny.
