quietearth [Film Festival 09.01.10] movie news drama



Having just premiered at Venice, this Greek weirdness from Rachel Tsangari (first article here), with Giorgos Lanthimos of Dogtooth producing, is right up my alley. I can't wait to see a trailer, but in the meantime, ioncinema got their hands on the poster.

Marina, 23, is growing up with her architect father in a prototype factory town by the sea. Finding the human species strange and repellent, she keeps her distance. Instead she stubbornly observes it through the songs of Suicide, the mammal documentaries of Sir David Attenborough, and the sex-ed lessons she receives from her only friend, Bella. A stranger comes to town and challenges her to a foosball duel, on her own table. Her father meanwhile ritualistically prepares for his exit from the 20th century, which he considers to be "overrated." Caught between the two men and her collaborator Bella, Marina investigates the wondrous mystery of the human fauna.


What is up with that chicken wing thing? Is she deformed?
