Sorry To Bother You * * * *

           This excellent absurdist comedy drama from first time director Boots Riley reminded a little of the work of Yorgos Lanthimos.  It's African American culture made it all the more funny as it parodied the self-conscious way African Americans are often treated and considered by white folk.
            An out of work young man lives with his artist girlfriend in a garage under his uncles house. Desperate for a dollar he finds a job in a call centre.  "Use your white voice" an experience colleague advises him. So he does and the dollars start rolling in.
             He's promoted and finds himself on the top floor with the glamour telemarketers dealing with the big ticket items.
               Senior management take a special interest in him.  He's invited to the very white parties of the boss, where he is asked to rap for their entertainment which he does with the dumbest most racist song you could imagine, to which they happily sing along.
           He discovers an internal project of the corporation with overtones of Animal Farm and Frankenstein.
