Frequently asked questions

What is American Psycho about? Toggle content

"American Psycho" plunges into the chaotic mind of Patrick Bateman, a wealthy investment banker living in 1980s New York City. On the surface, he embodies the quintessential yuppie lifestyle—success, luxury, and charm. However, beneath this polished exterior lies a disturbing duality as he grapples with violent impulses and his growing detachment from reality. As Bateman spirals deeper into madness, his façade begins to crack, leading him down a dark path of obsession and brutality. The film explores themes of identity, materialism, and the hidden horrors lurking within the human psyche while questioning what it truly means to be alive in an increasingly shallow world.
