Content

Three different stories about three very different people: A restless man trying to gain control of his life; a worried policeman whose wife has disappeared at sea and seems to be a different person when she unexpectedly returns; and an ambitious woman in search of someone destined to become a great spiritual leader.

According to critics, the film is "mercilessly absurd" (Frankfurter Rundschau), "a blatant piece of cinema" (3Sat Kulturzeit) and "a stroke of genius" (Süddeutsche).

The film was directed by Yorgos Lanthimos. The film lasts 164 minutes. Trailer and tickets at www.kinodrom.de.
