Synopsis

A family struggling with genetic illnesses lives on a country estate. Personal drama develops amongst them in this intimate portrait.

Moviegoers are saying

This polarizing film has sparked intense reactions from audiences, with many calling it a pretentious misfire that wastes strong performances and striking visuals on a deeply flawed script. Critics are particularly harsh on the writing and direction, with some comparing the viewing experience to watching 'a degenerative brain disease unfold in real time.'

If you could pick any celebrity family that this could be, why is your answer The Skårsgard's?

Rosebush Pruning

Interessant zu sehen, auf welche verrückte Art und Weise man Familienkonstellation erleben und aushalten kann, sich darin zurechtfindet und was man manchmal erdulden muss, bis es schlussendlich nicht mehr geht und so seine eigenen Gesundheit den angemessenen Respekt erweist.

Rosebush Pruning

Saw at Institute of Contemporary Art. Wanted to see Callum speak more Spanish. Didn’t know it was going to be weird. One lady walked out. Maybe the incest theme went over my head, but it didn’t really make sense.
