Plot
The film adaptation for the modern era of the ancient tragedy The Bacchae. Pentheus is celebrating his birthday, and surreal scenes unfold before his eyes, arousing doubts in the celebrant as to whether the things he is experiencing are real.
Sinekatalog’s take
A modern, surreal reworking of an ancient Greek tragedy, in which a birthday celebrant begins doubting what he sees. Dreamlike and provocative, it is meant for viewers who like myth reimagined as unsettling art-house experience.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
