The Killing of a Sacred Deer
This movie is not for the faint of heart: it's completely nauseating and hard to watch. With a great cast, featuring Nicole Kidman, Colin Farrell and Barry Keoghan ('Dunkirk'), we are faced with a very peculiar story, typical of Greek director Yorgos Lanthimos ('The Lobster'). 'The Killing of a Sacred Deer' mixes faith, religion, family conflicts and doubt. Fans of his who watched 'The Tooth Fairy' should be used to productions that cause discomfort to the viewer. The production works as a great reflection on how human nature's desires can shock us. The movie was the winner of the Cannes Festival 2017 Best Screenplay Award.

Nimic
Greek filmmaker Yorgos Lanthimos has established himself as one of the leading names in current cinema, with films such as 'The Lobster', 'Dogtooth' and 'The Favourite'. Now, in 'Nimic', this brief experimental exercise in short film format, Lanthimos seems to go beyond mere understanding. To do this, he tells the story of a professional cellist who meets a stranger on the subway and begins to experience transformations in his life. It's a strange movie, bordering on senselessness. And no wonder. Although 'Nimic' resembles the word "mimic" or something like that, "nimic" in Romanian means nothing. This may be the proposal of the short film, which undoubtedly brings a disturbing character and, above all, should raise discussions about the real meaning behind Lanthimos's story.
![The Favourite](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/wZUZuF/thumb/the-favourite_BkLrNO0.jpeg)
The Favourite
The acclaimed director Yorgos Lanthimos' film, ‘The Lobster,’ reimagines the period of Queen Anne's reign, who unified England and Scotland to create Great Britain. Lanthimos takes many poetic liberties in this farcical version of Anne's story, as we get to know a fragile queen who is subordinate to the machinations of those closest to her. This creates a subtext about power and corruption that is relevant to this day. The great performances of the main trio (Olivia Colman, Rachel Weisz, and Emma Stone), photography, editing, costume design, and direction – all were nominated for Academy Awards. Olivia ended up taking home the Best Actress statue.

The Lobster
Director Yorgos Lanthimos of 'The Favourite' brings us a strange and interesting comedy-drama about a near (and dystopian) future in which single people are a plague to society. With an all-star cast (including names like Colin Farrel, Rachel Weisz, Léa Seydoux and John C. Reilly), a great metaphor about current society is built. An intelligent screenplay that earned an Oscar nomination.

The Animal Kingdom
The Animal Kingdom is an ambitious French film that blends magical realism with our recent pandemic traumas to propose an intriguing story about intolerance and otherness. The story is set in France, in a world where an unexplained wave of mutations is turning humans into animals. To care for his mutated mother, a boy (Paul Kircher) moves with his father (Romain Duris) to a village in a wooded region of France, but as he begins to adjust to his new life, he starts turning into an animal himself. The film presents rich dichotomies (the natural world vs. civilization, normativity vs. divergence, repression vs. freedom) and features well-crafted visual effects that suggest perhaps it is those who hate, oppress, and try to control nature who are the most beastly and irrational.

Conquest of the Planet of the Apes
Conquest of the Planet of the Apes is the fourth installment of the saga in its original continuity. Set in the (then) near future of the 1990s, the film portrays a society in which apes have been enslaved by humanity, until one more evolved than the rest instigates a revolution that represents the fall of the human race. In addition to closing the line of events leading to the story of the original, this film also shares several narrative elements with what would be its reboot: here we meet Caesar, played by Roddy McDowall, and later by Andy Serkis in the new movies.

Ultraman: Rising
