Dogtooth
Monday 28th March, 8pm
Director Giorgos Lanthimos gives us a middle-class Greek family, lorded over by a father who keeps his teenage children permanently within the walls of their smart home in this stunningly provocative and witty play on the inspirations that make us who we are. A satire on the insular Southern European family? A coded attack on an overbearing “nanny” state? A cat lover’s worst nightmare? Dogtooth could be any or all of these things and leaves you questioning much about yourself and the world around us. With hints of Micheal Haneke and an overwhelming sweep of critical acclaim, this dark, deadpan comedy is a coolly shocking dissection of power gone crackers.
