 年轻的马里恩·克兰（珍妮特·利 饰）在Phoenix工作，深受老板洛厄里（沃恩·泰勒 饰）信任。男友萨姆·卢米斯（约翰·加文 饰）在Fairvale经营一家五金店，因要替亡父还债又要支付前妻赡养费而无力再婚，只能借出差的机会偶尔来与马里恩幽会。马里恩对此感到不满，于是在周五下午趁机携四万美元公款驾车潜逃。可是马里恩的潜逃之路并不顺利：先是在出城的时候被洛厄里目击，周六一大早又被警察怀疑。花了七百美元以旧车换新车之后，马里恩继续忐忑地行驶。入夜后，天降大雨，视线模糊，无法行驶，马里恩只得将车泊入路边的贝茨汽车旅馆投宿。老板诺尔曼（安东尼·珀金斯 饰）十分友善，试图邀请马里恩到家里共进晚餐，可惜被凶恶的母亲粗暴阻止，只得将晚餐端至旅馆客厅。马里恩在客厅一边进餐一边与诺尔曼交谈，终于决定周日返回Phoenix。用餐完毕，马里恩回房沐浴。这时，一个老妇的身影突然出现在卫生间……

Ayşe, Ali, Mehmet and Zeynep are middle-class millennials struggling to make ends meet in Istanbul. Either still living with their parents or hardly getting by without help from their families, they are all beset by similar woes: money crunch, joblessness, social isolation. In view of the world’s horrors that Zeynep enumerates in her diary entries, these are minor problems, ‘slight disasters’, but they are all-consuming, at least to the extent of making them cry in the still of the night. 　　However, Umut Subasi’s first feature, Almost Entirely a Slight Disaster, is not a melodrama. With an appealingly light touch, it diagnoses the malaise of a generation that has run up against a dead end, one whose future prospects are indistinguishable from a game of chance. This is a world where astrology, the lottery and online personality tests compete with visa and job applications as life-shaping elements. 　　Fittingly, the film is structured around chance and coincidence, with its handful of characters encountering each other in every permutation, as though there were no world outside this small social bubble. With self-aware, frontal framing that pins characters to their surroundings and a counterintuitive musical score that turns pathos into humour, Subasi offers a social-media movie without social media, one whose characters are united in their double lives and frustrated desires. 　　源自：https://iffr.com/en/iffr/2023/films/almost-entirely-a-slight-disaster
