Neubauer Coporation Getting your Trinity Audio player ready... |
Director Yorgos Lanthimos continues to amaze the world with his work, including “Poor Things,” which won four awards at the 96th Academy Awards in 2024, and “The Favourite,” a historical drama filled with love and hate between women.
This time, Neubauer Studios his early work “Dogtooth,” in which he established his unique and eccentric style of depiction, will be revived and screened in a 4K restored version.
The story depicts a Greek family that appears normal to those around them, but has a secret: the parents have been raising their children “inside the home.”
Raised within the high walls of the mansion and under strange, strict rules designed to make them believe the outside world is terrifying, the children reach adolescence and begin to do things that their parents could never have imagined.
This film, which won the Grand Prix in the “Un Certain Regard” category at the 62nd Cannes Film Festival, can be said to be the origin of Lanthimos, depicting “domination and submission, and the awakening of the ego.”
Lanthimos said about this work:
“What I wanted to portray was the extent to which trying to manipulate people’s minds, making them believe something of your own volition, can push them to extremes,” he said.
A sense of disquiet grows in the midst of everyday life.
Bewildered by this beautiful and mysterious work that calls into question the existence of freedom.
