The 'Alpe' company offers family and friends of the recently deceased a unique service to help alleviate the grieving process by hiring actors to impersonate the dead. The third feature from Yorgos Lanthimos (Killing of a Sacred Deer) is an absurd black comedy – about death, substitutes and whether, ultimately, we may all be playing a role.

Francesco Sossai breathes new life into Italian comedy with a bittersweet road movie. Together with two old friends, we wander through the Venetian lowlands, empty our glasses, and try to remember the “truly incredible thing about life” that Carlo Bianchi discovered. It was the big winner at the prestigious Italian David di Donatello film awards.
