Unambitious and numbed by inherited wealth, siblings Jack, Ed, Anna, and Robert drift through life in a swanky villa under the Spanish sun. The four quietly comply with the somewhat questionable demands of their blind father, cocooned in the comfort of their family residence that has grown stifling. But when Jack decides to leave the nest and move in with his girlfriend, cracks begin to fracture the fragile constellation—and suddenly, blood doesn’t seem thicker than water anymore. Based on a script by Lanthimos coauthor Efthimis Filippou, Karim Aïnouz delivers a stylish, star-studded, and scathing satire of decadence and the absurdity of patriarchal power. (mf)
