The Funeral (1996)

Synopsis [spoilers]: Young Johnny has been murdered. He was a communist and opposed to the deals his brothers Ray and Chez, who controlled the union, made with Caspare in favor of a factory owner. His brother Ray orders his goons to bring him Caspare, whose wife had an affair with the deceased. After an interrogation, Ray concludes Caspare didn't do it; he orders his assassination anyway. The real culprit is brought to Ray, and claims Johnny raped his girlfriend; Ray takes him to a deserted place, where the young man confesses the rape was a lie, and he really killed Johnny because the latter beat him up in front of his friends. Ray executes him. Later at home, Ray's brother Chez, who suffers from "insanity", shoots Ray and another guy dead, then shoots Johnny's corpse, then shoots himself.

Appraisal: Second viewing, didn't remember a thing. I remember having liked it the first time I saw it in the same measure I liked it now. The ending is probably not defensible.
