Ralphie fühlt sich ohnmächtig, abgehängt, chancenlos. Sein Zorn auf alles und jede:n ist eine tickende Zeitbombe, bis sein Kumpel Jason ihm von einer Männergruppe erzählt, die „Typen wie uns“ hilft. Im Manodrome teilt Leiter Dan die Kerls in „Väter“ und „Söhne“ ein. Man soll sich gegenseitig stützen, helfen und gemeinsam heilen, jedenfalls aber die „Gynosphäre“ außen vor lassen. Der südafrikanische Regisseur John Trengove legt seinen abgründigen Psychothriller als komplexe Charakterstudie von Jesse Eisenbergs Quasi-Incel an, der vom charismatischen Ersatzvater Adrien Brody zur Explosion gebracht wird. Provokant! (mk)
