Movie: ‘Tickled’

September 15, 2016 11:35 pm

This is REALLY good! It’s a documentary about a NZ journalist who, while doodling around on the internet, stumbles onto a website about ‘competitive endurance tickling’. Watching people being tickled tickled his sense of humour and curiosity as well, so he emailed the owner of the site with a view to doing a documentary about it.  His investigations about something so ostensibly quirky and amusing took him into some very dark places.  It’s a very unnerving, discomfiting film and one of the best docos I’ve seen in a long time.

  1. It sounds intriguing, I like a quirky doc- I’ll keep an eye out for it, but likely won’t get to see it before it hits Netflix or SBS.
