Dogtooth
Directed by Yorgos Lanthimos
In an effort to protect their three children from the corrupting influence of the outside world, a couple transforms their home into a gated compound of cultural deprivation and strict rules of behavior. But children cannot remain innocent forever. When the father brings home a young woman to satisfy his son's sexual urges, the family's engineered "reality" begins to crumble, with devastating consequences. Like the haunting, dystopic visions of Michael Haneke and Gaspar Noé, DOGTOOTH punctuates its compelling drama with moments of shocking violence, creating a biting social satire that is as profound as it is provocative.
Three teenagers live isolated. But children cannot remain innocent forever.
Cast: Christos Stergioglou, Michele Valley, Angeliki Papoulia, Hristos Passalis, Mary Tsoni

This is a fantastically disturbing, and fascinating film. I was enthralled, because it felt like a real thing!
this was weirdly satisfying...dad was the real MVP
People liked this???? It was suggested to me like 3 times, finally watched it to the end and I'm so friggin lost. Left my head hurting big time.
very very strange and nauseating at times. good premise though...shouldve ended with an ending.
