“Wild Tales” is an anthology film showcasing six short stories that show how easily people can lose their civilized veneer and revert to barbarism and savagery. In each instance, some sort of personal, societal or institutional miscarriage pushes a protagonist over the edge. This Argentinian feature is black, but definitely not bleak. A wry and biting sense of humor runs through all the vignettes, Otherwise, the movie would have been unbearably heavy.
