Dogtooth
Festival Note
Dogtooth established Yorgos Lanthimos as a filmmaker to watch. It takes audiences into a very strange home, where three teenagers are taught an entirely new vocabulary with the help of homemade tapes given to them by their parents. Methodically, the film depicts the breadth of control their parents have over them, and how the couple manages to maintain this tyranny.
Itinatag ng Dogtooth si Yorgos Lanthimos bilang direktor na dapat tangkilikin. Sa isang kakaibang tahanan, may tatlong teenager na tinuruan ng bagong paraan ng pananalita sa pamamagitan ng mga tape na binigay ng kanilang mga magulang. Unti-unti, pinapakita ng pelikula ang hangganan ng kontrol ng mga magulang, at kung paano nila pinapatili ang kanilang paniniil.
