*½
Director: Yorgos Lanthimos
Cast: Christos Stergioglou, Michelle Valley, Angeliki Papoulia, Mary Tsoni, Christos Passalis, Anna Kalaitzidou
Yorgos Lanthimos' breakthrough film tells a story of a couple who have brought up their three grown-up children with lies within the walls of the family's compound, completely cut off from the outside world. In theory, this is a highly original and extremely dark comedy about disturbingly over-protective parents. In practice, however, this is an implausible and incredibly boring soft porn film with robotic acting.
