Dogtooth
Yorgos Lanthimos' scary, witty tale of a dysfunctional Greek family is original, ingenious and sadly relevant as a study of parent-child relationships
Drama 2009 93 mins
Director: Yorgos Lanthimos
Overview
Yorgos Lanthimos' frighteningly relevant but mordantly witty look at a dysfunctional Greek family offers a brilliant if deeply disturbing analysis of the power dynamics of parent-child relationships. Highly original and insightful in its narrative details and directed with an impressively cool, almost mechanical precision, the film was greeted as a breakthrough in Greek filmmaking
