Escalation es una película italiana dirigida en 1968 por . Con este film Roberto Faenza analiza la sociedad de la época (estamos en 1968) que en lugar de los valores auténticos, ensalza la riqueza, el prestigio social y el éxito, despersonalizando en cierto sentido al individuo. Sarcasmo e ironía se mezclan en este film que a través de un lenguaje provocativo, alcanza tonos grotescos y paradójicos.
