CGiii Comment
As Greece crumbles...it looks like her film industry is following suit.
Tsangari was the associate producer on 'Dogtooth' - and, within 30 seconds it becomes obvious that this is an inferior Dogtoothy 2...without the quirkiness.
The opening scene is a moronic lesson on how to kiss...and then, the two women become cats and start spitting at each other...
This is what green-behind-the-ears drama students are forced to do - go to the zoo and mimic the animals - under the close scrutiny of the teacher/director - it serves no purpose other than to humiliate...
This film serves no purpose other than to irritate and to remind the world of the sorry state that Greece has found herself in.
A decrepit, pompous film.
Trailer...
The(ir) Blurb...
