“With inspiration in classical Greek pieces, especially Euripides' "Ifigenia in Áulide", this is the fifth solo film of the Greek Yorgos Lanthimos.Telling the story of a cardiovascular surgeon who becomes the mentor of a fatherless teenager who begins to creep into his seemingly perfect family and forces him to revisit his obscure past, the film raises questions about sacrifice and the guilt. In the lead role, as Dr. Steven Murphy, is Colin Farrell, protagonist of "The Lobster", the previous film of Lanthimos and the first one of the realized director in English.”-PÚBLICO
